A student places a piece of a potato into a container of hydrogen peroxide. One observation the student makes is that bubbles form around the potato. The presence of bubbles might indicate the formation of a new substance because bubbles - 

• could show that a gas is forming

• always rise to the top of a liquid. 

• are almost always perfectly spherical.

• usually burst after a few minutes.
