water is made oxygen bu oxygen also can dissolve in water. any gas can dissolve in water.
the solubility of gas in water or any liquid is found by the formula
C (solubility) = K(constant) * P(pressure of gas)
the solubility depends on temperature and the pressure of gas. if some molecules of water dissolve in water and the pressure of gas on water is high, most of the molecules remain in water, but if the pressure is low, they will vaporize or skip.

Oxygen is insoluble in water. Only slight amount would dissolve.

No oxygen is one of the two elements that make up water. Water is two parts Hydrogen and one part Oxygen.

Bubbles have different sizes. There are big ones and small ones. If a bubble gets too small it loses bouyancy, thus does not float to the surface, and thus remains underwater. At this point the bubble is small enough you can't see it, thus it is concidered to have been disolved, but it is technically merely dispersed.

it is more of a mixture... O2 and H2O.
That is why the O2 leaves the water as the water gets warmer.
