When you split water you form hydrogen and oxygen gas. The gases are the bubbles.

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.
Bubbles in your water bottle are likely caused by air getting trapped in the water when you fill it up or by carbonation in the water.
Bubbles in water can act as nuclei for ice crystals to form, which can speed up the freezing process by providing a surface for ice to start forming. The presence of bubbles can also affect the thermal properties of water, potentially influencing the rate at which heat is transferred and therefore impacting the freezing time.
The bubbles that rise from the bottom of a pan of boiling water are called water vapor bubbles. As the water heats up, it turns into steam, forming bubbles that float to the surface.
More water typically results in more bubbles because the water forms the base of the bubble solution and helps create the surface tension required for bubbles to form. However, using too much water can dilute the soap solution and actually inhibit bubble formation.
When a metal at 280 degrees Celsius is immersed in water, the metal will lose heat to the water. This may cause the metal to cool down and potentially reach thermal equilibrium with the water. There may also be a release of steam or bubbles as the water heats up and potentially reacts with the metal.
