Bubbles are comprised of gases, which have a lesser density than water. Since they are less dense, they get pushed up to the surface, and they rise, lighter than the liquid around them.

Why do air bubbles in water rise to the surface?
Air is lighter than water.
Why do bubbles rise to the surface of the water?
Because there are cells in in water and everything with water bubbles rise because the cells vibrate whch cause bubbling with Bubbles as in the ones u buy or detergent they have gas in them and gas floats everywhere we breath gas
Why do air bubbles form when you pour water from a height?
The water falls faster and pushed the water down allowing air in before the water balances out and the trapped air form air bubbles
Why does an air bubble rise to the surface of a glass of warter?
When water is boiled, the heat energy is transferred to the molecules of water, which begin to move more quickly. Eventually, the molecules have too much energy to stay connected as a liquid. When this occurs, they form gaseous molecules of water vapor, which float to the surface as bubbles and travel into the air.
How fast do bubbles rise in water?
600 meters per hour
Why do air bubbles in water rise to the surface?
Air is lighter than water.
When warm air rises what bubbles rise in the air?
Carbon Dioxide CO2 is the bubbles that rise in the air.
Do soap bubbles last longer in warm or cold air?
My answer is, that there are air bubbles in the bottom of it, (WHEN ITS BOILING) Than those air bubbles rise to the top, & That's how hot water bubbles more than cold water.
Why the air bubbles become larger when it come to the top of water?
Air or CO2 bubbles tend to coalese as they rise and are being forced closer together by the containers shape. They can cling to a containers walls and group up as they rise.
Will air float in water?
Yes. Blow bubbles the next time you go swimming or take a bath. You will see the bubbles rise. Air is several hundred times less dense than water.
How do bubbles of gas rise in a lemonade?
Carbon dioxide makes up the air bubbles, and carbon dioxide is lighter than lemonade, so the bubbles rise to the top.
What are the bubbles that appear and rise to the surface during boiling?
air
Why do you see bubbles when you put a bath sponge into water?
Do bubbles escape when you squeeze a sponge under water air
How do bubbles form in boiling water?
When water boils, the heat converts some of the water to steam and each bubble is a steam bubble. Steam is a gas that is lighter than water, and so the bubbles rise to the surface of the water where the steam is released. As the steam cools in the air, it forms water vapor, and that is what we see. Most people call the vapor "steam", but steam is a transparent gas, like air.
What is more dense water or bubbles?
Water because wter is more dense then air and air is in bubbles
Are bubbles in a lemonade a solid liquid or gas?
the answer is bubbles are found in liquids.................
What compound is inside bubbles of boiling water?
These bubbles contain air.
