Which of the following accurately explains why your bathroom mirror fogs up during the shower?

• When the water vapor molecules in the air bump into the cold mirror, the water vapor condenses into small water droplets that fog up the mirror.

• During very hot showers the heat from the water causes the water vapor molecules in the air to move slower. Some of those slower moving water vapor molecules land on the mirror and appear as fog.
