Warm air is less dense then cold air.

But moist air is actually less dense than dry air because water vapor has a lower molecular weight than the oxygen and nitrogen that make up most of the atmosphere.

Why does warm water sit on top of cold water?

Warm water is less dense than cold water, so it sits on top of the cold water. This is because warm water molecules are more spread out and have less mass per unit volume compared to cold water molecules, causing warm water to be less dense and float on top of the denser cold water.
