Bubbles in WaterI don't think so.

There is always dissolved oxygen and nitrogen in the water. When it's underpressure, (like when it's in a pipe) or when it's cold (like when it's down ina well), there can be more dissolved gas then when it's warm and sitting on the counter. When you first draw it out of the tap, the dissolved gas staysput, but given enough time it will slowly escape from the water. This usuallyhappens at nucleation sites, like a rough spot on the glass, just like bubblesform in a glass of beer. (See Craig Bohren's "Clouds in a Glass of Beer".)

Can you recognize gases in soda water?

Yes you can, all those little bubbles that float from the bottom to the top are Carbon Dioxide bubbles.


The bubble coming out of the breaker.what is the name of gas?

When you first start to boil water, the bubbles that you see are basically air bubbles. Technically, these are bubbles formed from the dissolved gases that come out of the solution, so if the water is in a different atmosphere, the bubbles would consist of those gases. Under normal conditions, the first bubbles are mostly nitrogen with oxygen and a bit of argon and carbon dioxide. As you continue heating the water, the molecules gain enough energy to transition from the liquid phase to the gaseous phase. These bubbles are water vapor. When you see water at a "rolling boil," the bubbles are entirely water vapor. Water vapor bubbles start to form on nucleation sites, which are often tiny air bubbles, so as water starts to boil, the bubbles consist of a mixture of air and water vapor.


Does the water bottle have bubbles in it?

Yes, the water bottle has bubbles in it.


What compound is inside bubbles of boiling water?

These bubbles contain air.


What is wrong with your fish if they keep getting bubbles on them and then die?

they get bubbles on them? I've never seen it myself, but if you put in new water without leaving the water out to "age" for a few hours, there is a chance that your fish will suffer as the nitrogen bubbles form. Ever leave a glass of water out overnight? Those bubbles can even form INSIDE your fish which could cause the death you speak of.


What are the bubbles in boiling water made of?

the bubbles in boiling water is water in a gasious state rising to the surface.


What do you think is inside the bubbles that form when the water boils where did the water go?

When water boils, bubbles form due to the release of water vapor from the liquid. These bubbles contain water vapor, not air. The water itself does not disappear; it is transformed into water vapor, which you see as bubbles.


Why do bubbles last longer in hot water?

Bubbles last longer in cool water because the cold water doesn't take energy from the bubbles


Will air bubbles reappear if boiled water is reheated?

No, air bubbles will not reappear when boiled water is reheated. Boiling causes the air bubbles to escape from the water, and reheating it will not bring the bubbles back.


When water boils you can see bubbles rising to the surface of the water Of what are the bubbles made?

The bubbles in boiling water are made of water vapor, which is the gaseous form of water. As the water heats up, it turns into steam and creates bubbles that rise to the surface and eventually burst.
