Question
Can you make a mirror hazy in the same way? Can you tell by touching the mirror what made it hazy? Is the air you blew from your mouth dry or wet?

Solution
Yes, I can make the mirror hazy as well. When we blow the air, the moisture formed by the air blown comes in contact with the mirror which makes the mirror look hazy. The air blew from the mouth is wet.
