Heated gases will increase in kinetic energy and decrease in density.

As gases are heated, their molecules gain kinetic energy, move faster, and spread apart, resulting in a decrease in density. Because of this lower density compared to the surrounding, cooler air or gases, the heated gases rise to the top of their container.
