Now the molecules of the heated air have room to move around more freely, and continue to do so as long as the heat gives them extra kinetic energy. The higher the hot air floats, the more room there is for its molecules to move about, and so it continually expands, its energy pushing it out and up. Here the air runs into a balancing problem due to the laws of thermodynamics. The energy from all of its molecules can be used to propel the molecules out at greater distances so it can expand more, or the energy can be used to keep the air hot, but it cannot do both at the same time.
it gets warmer as it rises
Warm air rises at the equator and cold air sinks at the poles. Warm air expands and cool air contracts and compresses.
yes the cool denser air sink while the warm less dense rises
Warm air rises because it is less dense than cold air. This creates air currents and convection that lead to the mixing of air masses in the atmosphere.
The cold air will sink.
Warm air rises,and then sinks when the air is cold.
It's the other way round - when air becomes warm, it rises.
it gets warmer as it rises

Lol, no it doesn't, ..it gets colder as it rises.
Yes! Warm air is less dense, which is why warm air rises. Cold air is more dense so that's why it sinks.

Warm air rises because it is less dense than cold air. This creates air currents and convection that lead to the mixing of air masses in the atmosphere.
warm air rises cold air goes down sinks
