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.
