Abstract
Deductive arguments regarding the unexpected stability of nanobubbles in water include the excessive internal pressure of minuscule gas pockets. In this study, the derivation assumptions of the Young–Laplace equation are evaluated closely to discuss the possible modifications towards making conclusive remarks about the predictive power of the equation at the nano-scale.
