As you leave a glass of water out, it warms. As it warms, various gasses (CO2, O2) become less soluble in it. Hence they escape from it in the form of these bubbles!

Write an experiment to show the presence of water vapour in atmosphere?
Take a steel glass and add chilled water in it and few ice cubes. And them simply keep it on a table. You will see after few seconds water is present on outer walls of glass. Thats because water vapour get condensed due to low tempreature.
Is it bad if there are bubbles all over the glass and gravel in a new fish tank?
The bubbles you see are only excess air that has been deposited on the surfaces in the tank. They are perfectly normal and will dissappear in time.
Can sea glass melt in water?
no. the water only smooths glass. glass needs to be over 1500 °C, or about 2700 °F to melt
What is the property of water that prevents water from spelling over in a glass?
Surface tension.
An old remedy for a pair of nested drinking glasses that stick together is to run water at different temperatures into the inner glass and over the surface of the outer glass which water will be hot?
put the cold water into inner glass and hot water out the glass
Why do bubbles form in filtered water?
Non-polar gas molecules such as nitrogen and oxygen, which make up around 98% of the air, are not very soluble in water. There are two possible reasons why a standing glass of water will form bubbles if left over time. If you pour a glass of water you mix in additional gas to it which as the water / gas mixture returns to equilibrium, starts leaving solution (imagine oil sitting on water, stirring the two, and then watching the two separate again, the air above the water surface is like the oil in this case). Also as the temperature of water rises, the gas solubility falls and so they start to form bubbles out of solution. Water out of a tap may be cooler than the room. As the water warms up gas solubility falls, the equilibrium shifts, and gas and water start to separate.
Are the bubbles in soda water and in regular water the same?
No, bubbles in soda water are carbon dioxide (introduced to the bottle when manufactured) whereas bubbles in regular water are entrapped air (introduced say by aerating over a water fall or the like - they can also occur in tap water by getting air in the pipes and then being entrapped when being pumped through the network of pipes to your house).
What property of water allows a dome of water to form over the edge of a glass when you add more water to a glass that is already full?
Surface Tension
Why after spraying water based coating's there's bubbles coming out?
After you spray something with a water based coating you should spray over it with polyurethane. This will make the bubbles not come up and the surface you have just sprayed stay smooth.
What happens when light passes from three different mediums like water to glass and glass to air?
In that case, it will change direction twice - in this example, once when it changes over from water to glass, and once when it changes from glass to air.
What is sea glass?
Sea glass is a type of glass that is found near salt water. It is basically just broken pieces of glass that have been weathered and tumbled in salt water. The pieces then become smooth and cloudy over time.
How are rapids are formed?
Rapids occur in a shallower part of a river where there is a steep difference in levels. This increases how fast the water flows. Water then hits exposed rocks and creates air bubbles making the water appear white in color.
