The Source of the Cloud Produced upon Adding Dry Ice to Water

Abstract
The source of the cloud produced upon addition dry ice to water is established as due to tiny droplets of water dragged out of solution by the CO2 cold gas stream. This is different from an explanation in print and on video which relies solely on atmospheric condensation to explain the cloud.
