How come you cannot hold bubbles?

You can touch "soap" bubbles, just not with dry skin.
There are other kinds of bubbles which you can touch which aren't made from soap, including one that is commercially available, and another made from sugar.
Many liquids can make bubbles, but soap and water is the best at achieving the correct surface tension to create bubbles. However, these are very fragile (due to their incredibly thin walls) hence why they pop so easily.
BUBBLE - TIP: If you want to touch soap bubbles, cover your hands in the bubble mix for lots of eye-popping amazement, and a wonderful bit of fun. Share them with your friends!
(remember that soap can dry out your skin, so wash your hands thoroughly afterwards)
Happy bubbling!

Dissolved air bubbles out of the water, as the boiling point of water is reached, water vapour starts to form inside the liquid in the form of bubbles


Why do bubbles come to the surface?

Bubbles come to the surface due to buoyancy. The gas inside the bubble is less dense than the surrounding liquid, causing it to rise. As the bubble moves upward, it displaces the liquid around it, making room for more bubbles to form.


What substance is used in soaps to produce bubbles?

Surfactants, such as sodium lauryl sulfate or sodium laureth sulfate, are the substances used in soaps to produce bubbles. They reduce the surface tension of water, allowing it to create lather and hold bubbles.


Why air bubbles are observed in the water when the round-bottomed flask is heated?

Great question! You may notice that air bubbles form of the bottom of the flask, long before it starts boiling, but it can't be evaporation, because that only occurs at the surface, so what is it? Well, as you know, there is oxygen "dissolved" in water (that is how fish and other marine life can survive in water). When water is heated, it actually not able to hold as much dissolved gas (which is the opposite of dissolved solids in water, the water can hold MORE when it is heated). This is because a gas is naturally more energetic then the liquid, so as it heats, its desire to escape from being dissolved grows faster then the liquids ability to hold it, so the water cannot hold as much. Well, as it heats, the air begins to escape and form bubble. these often happen at the bottom of the flask, because that water is heated first and fastest (so air escapes from them the soonest).
