The statement is not correct; cold air particles move slowly because they lack the kinetic energy they need to move fast, which is heat.
Hot air particles have more energy and move more quickly compared to cold air particles, which have less energy and move more slowly. This results in hot air being less dense and rising, while cold air is denser and sinks.
The difference lies in the speed of particles, not in the composition or structure of the individual particles themselves. Temperature measures the average speed of particles, so the particles which compose hot air are going to be moving faster than the cold air particles. Because of this, the two take on new properties - hot air will expand more rapidly and rise, while cold air will sink.

Air particles: Nitrogen, Oxygen, Carbon dioxide, etc...
Temperature measures how fast air particles are moving. Higher temperatures mean faster-moving particles, while lower temperatures mean slower-moving particles.
Gas particles, like the particles in all states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) are always moving apart and colloding with other particles. Gas particles have more space in between and tend to move faster than the particles in a solid or liquid state. Temperature only affects how fast a particle moves, therefore warm air makes gas particles move faster and cold air makes gas particles move slower.

it travels faster in warner air since cold particles dont move very fast because they do not have much energy. then when warm air enters the particles they start moving faster and vibrating faster which moves sound along alot faster. hope this helps :).
cold air rises warm air sinks
In a solid, the particles start to vibrate a lot.In a liquid, the particles begin to move around faster and faster.In a gas, the particles move extremely fast through the air.
Yes because cold air particles are stuck tight together and warm air particles move around in the air freely. That is why warm air is usually higher up than cold air.
The particles in the air come closer together and don't move as much.

Air molecules move faster in hot weather and slower in cold weather.
air moves from particles to particles
The faster molecules move, the more kinetic energy they have. Temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy. Therefore, molecules that move more quickly imply warmer air.
In cold air, molecules move slower then they would move in warm air. One part of the KPM (kinetic particle model) states that temperature directly effects the movement of the particles, therefore causing the molecules of the warm air to move faster (because of more frequent collisions between the molecules).
