False because warm air rises. The particles in cold air are moving more slowly and make cold air more dense than warm air.

What happens when warm and cool air collide?
when a warm and cold air come in as a contact it is like cold air is heavier than warm air so it sinks forcing lighter warm air to rise
Why the frozen pack is placed at the top of the box rather than at the bottom?
Cold air falls and warm air rises
How does cold temperature affect the ability to breathe?
It shallows breathing bcause the cold temperature causes your lungs to contract
Why is it not vital to keep the lid of a chest freezer closed?
Any freezer needs to be kept closed as much as possible if you wish for it to remain cold. However a chest freezer will not warm up as fast as an upright freezer. This is because the cold air in the freezer is heavier than the air outside of the freezer. When you open an upright freezer the cold air "falls" out, this can't happen with a chest freezer.
Why a sunny day is more humid than a cold day?
because of percipitation
How would you compare the density of cold air to warm air?
Cold air is heavier than warm air.
Is Warm air heavier or cold air?
cold air is heavier than the warm air warm air has low water so it is hot and low heavy but cold air has a lot of water so it cold and heavy
What is the difference in density between warm and cold air?
The density between cold and warm air is, cold air is heavier than warm air.
What is heavier cold or warm air?
Cold air is heavier
Are cold air masses lighter the warm air masses or the same?
cold fronts are heavier than warm fronts
What are the characteristics of warm and cold air for weather?
Warm air is lighter and therefore rises. Cold air holds more water and is heavier. Cold air sinks lower than warm air.
If cold air is heavier than warm air then why is it colder in the mountains?
You have forgotten one vital fact, cold air is heavier than hot air------At the same atmospheric pressure!!. That means that the cold air on Mt Everest is lighter than than the warm air 29000 ft below in the Ganges Delta.
Why do cold fronts push into warm front and go under the warm front?
Cold air is more dense than warm air and therefore heavier
Warm air weighs more than cold air?
no cold air is heavier because it sinks and hot air rises
Why is the refrigerator cold at bottom and warm at top?
The refrigerator is cold at the bottom and warm at the top because warm air rises. Cold air is heavier than warm air and settles toward the bottom of the appliance.
Does cold air have high or low pressure?
Cold air typically has higher pressure than warm air because cold air is denser and therefore exerts more pressure on its surroundings.
Why does cold air push warm air?
Because cold air is more dense, and also contains less water vapour.
