Answer 1

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

When gases are heated, their particles gain kinetic energy and move more rapidly, causing the gas to expand. As the volume increases while the mass remains the same, the density decreases. This lower density compared to the surrounding cooler air causes the heated gas to rise.
