Question
part a cold air is than hot air. hot air is than cold air. more dense
Step1: Recall the relationship between density and particle arrangement
Density is related to how closely particles are packed. In cold air, particles are more closely packed as shown in the diagram.
Step2: Determine the density comparison
Since cold air has more particles in a given volume (more closely - packed), it is more dense. Hot air has fewer particles in the same volume (more spread - out), so it is less dense.
