hi all.
when heating water, bubbles exists in inner walls of contanier. may i
believe that bubbles consists of carbondioxide?. If so, How do we get
co2 free water?

I assume you mean that you see bubbles ON the walls of the container?

I'll also assume that you are warming the solution, and not bringing
it anywhere near boiling point.

I can't tell you exactly what the bubbles are, but I can tell you that
procedures for obtaining CO2-free water (e.g. for certain titrations)
are outlined in books such as Vogel's "Quantitative Inorganic Analysis".

One caution, though - if your CO2-free water is left exposed to the
atmosphere, it will steadily readsorb CO2 from the air...

The bubbles could be -any- of the dissolved atmospheric gases (O2,
N2, CO2, Ar, etc.) or could be bubbles of water vapor (that's what
boiling is, after all - turning liquid water into gaseous water).

David Stone's comment is correct - left exposed to atmosphere, water
purged of dissolved gases will simply reabsorb them.

Hi all,

Dissolved gases in water can also be removed by
distillation under reduced pressure using a vacuum pump or by purging
with helium.

Never heard of cavitation? Other dissolved gases?

I don't know about cavitation.
So what exactly do you think happens when something boils?
Why is it that you see bubbles?
Why is it that bubbles form at specific points on the surface
of the container you are boiling the water in?

I'm sure if you think about the answers to those questions, you will
know what to do about the bubbles remaining in your container...
