The expanding gases push as far as they can until the water pressure overcomes the outward force of the gas. Then the bubble collapses to a point where the gas exerts more force than the water so the bubble expands again. This cycle perpetuates until the gases cool to a temperature where they no longer expand. | Now Science News | Facebook
