[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

As the molecules in warm air move faster, they collide with each other more frequently and transfer energy more quickly. This results in the sound waves traveling faster through warm air compared to cold air, where the molecules move slower and transfer energy more slowly.
