A cold front is created because of density. When air warms up, the molecules that make up the air move faster, causing them to spread out further.
This makes the air less dense than the cold air, whose molecules are closer together, making it more dense. Because of this, when the two walls of air meet, the cold air cuts underneath the warm air, forcing it upwards, making it cold on the ground.
