Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Arsenous oxide is used for removing air bubbles from glass during its manufacture.

Detailed explanation-2: -The results of the 180-t RH industrial test reveal that bubbles of carbon dioxide are formed by the decarburization reaction of calcium hydrogencarbonate, which effectively removed inclusions from the molten steel.

Detailed explanation-3: -“Bubbles” are air or gas filled cavities within the glass. In the glass making industry, small bubbles were referred to as “seeds” and larger bubbles as “blisters.” Seeds are not likely more than 1/16 inch in diameter which is lesser than bubble diameter.
