Alpha particles can pass through very few substances. It can travel in air but has a range of only a few centimetres.
The movement so described is called diffusion. When particles of regions of higher density move to regions of lower density, they are said to diffuse.
Simply because air has few particles in it. Your hand can easily cut through these few particles. However, in a solid block of wood, there are a lot more particles, which are closely packed. It would be a lot harder to break something that has closely packed particles.
what is the diffrence in hot and cold air particles
The air particles are behave like collidel particles because they collide with each other and form a high weight of air.
a partial vacuum

Just a few inches.

The answer is thermal energy
air moves from particles to particles
The movement is random, but there is a net movement from regions where there are lots of particles to ones where there are fewer particles.

Air particles contain oxygen.
it is because of the dust particles present in the air that we can't see
particles of cool air are sloser together than particles of warm air
No. When air cools air particles move closer together. When air warms air particles move father away from each other.
