trust me, bro:
here is the receipt.
the claim
Air bubbles under water are visible due to total internal reflection caused by the difference in refractive indices.

the weight of evidence
no sources on either side

Air bubbles underwater appear silvery or highly visible because light passing from water into the gas experiences total internal reflection due to the significant difference in refractive indices; no citation is needed as this is a matter of basic physics and direct everyday observation.

The analysis

The claim describes a fundamental, elementary principle of physical optics and everyday observation (total internal reflection at a gas-water boundary). According to the system instructions, claims that are trivially true by definition or direct everyday observation are classified as COMMON_KNOWLEDGE, requiring no citations or paper attachments.
