Misty fogs form when water boils because the hot water vapor comes into contact with cooler air, causing it to condense into tiny water droplets that we see as mist. This process occurs when the warm air, saturated with water vapor, meets a cooler surface, leading to condensation and the formation of mist.

No, they are still in H2O form. Change of state does not change the chemical nature of molecules.
When water boils, the bubbles are made of water vapor. Water is changing from the liquid phase to the gas phase, but it doesn't change all at once, so you get bubbles of gas inside the liquid. The phase change will happen first at the location where heating is taking place, so if you have a pot on a stove, the bubbles will form at the bottom of the pot, and then rise to the top.
well it depends if you boil it over a fire sometimes bubbles do occur but if your just heating it at a temperature lower than boiling than it just slowly evaporates like regular water in a lake
When water boils, some of its molecules have enough thermal energy to overcome the intermolecular forces (hydrogen bonding) that hold them together, allowing them to escape into the vapor phase. This is why water molecules at the surface of the liquid can break free and form water vapor during the boiling process.
oxygen? NopeSteam. Steam is water in gas form. Boiling water reaches a temperature of 212 degrees and it begins to turn to steam. Interesting property of water is that no matter how hotter you turn up the heat, the water temperature remains at 212 degrees.
