The individual air molecules' kinetic energy increases, thus, increasing the amount of collisions between the molecules. It expands, so it becomes less dense than the surrounding air and therefore it rises (floats) upwards.

What happen when warm moist air rises?
When warm moist air rises it cools and condenses.
What happens to the air in the surroundings as warm as rises?
It gets warmer.
What will happen if your breath is warm and the air is cold?
it will form a cloud
What happen to water vapor when warm air cools?
It condenses
Explain what the difference between warm and cold air with regards to movement Why does this happen?
Warm air rises and cold air sinks. This is called convection and happens because warm air is less dense and lighter.
What happen to the air in the surrounding as warm air rises?
it gets warmer as it rises
What happen to air in the surroundings as warm air rises?
it gets warmer as it rises
What will happen if you inflate a balloon with warm air and take it to a cold place?
The air inside cools. Cool air shrinks. The balloon gets smaller.
What does warm air do when it gets to the atmosphere?
rise
What happen when warm moist air rises?
When warm moist air rises it cools and condenses.
What happens to the air surrounding air as warm air rises?
it gets warmer
Does dry air only occur in warm air?
No, dry air is caused by a lack of moisture in the air. It can happen in warm or cold air.
What happens to the air surrounding the rising warm air?
it gets warmer
What happens to the surrounding air as warm air rises?
it gets warmer
How does unstable air contribute to storms?
For a storm to develop, air parcels from the ground and the lower atmosphere have to get lifted to the higher atmosphere. The trigger for this to happen, is the instability of the air. warm air from the ground gets lifted while cold air from the higher atmosphere gets descended, thus the barycenter of the atmosphere gets lowered. The energy freed by this is the storm.
What happens when warm air gets cool?
Condensation
What happens to the air in the surrounding as warm air rises?
it gets warmer as it rises
