Water can be separated into its component gases; Hydrogen and Oxygen.

One of the easiest methods is using Electrolysis, by means of metal plates immersed in the water and connected to a DC power supply. Frequently, some other chemical is dissolved in the water, to create an Electrolyte, this is primarily used to reduce the resistance of the Cell, thereby increasing the current across it thus increase the output of these component gases.

Why do bubbles form when you split up water?

Bubbles form when you split up water because the water molecules are composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. When the water is split, the hydrogen atoms combine to form hydrogen gas (H2), which bubbles up and separates from the oxygen atoms.

Why does the straw in the class of water appear to be split aat the surface of the water?

The straw appears split at the surface of the water due to refraction. When light travels from air into water, it changes speed and bends, causing a optical illusion that makes the straw appear split. This effect occurs because of the difference in optical density between air and water.
