Answer 2

Hey friend,

Kinetice energy of particles inceease with the rise in temperature. Smell from the hot sizzling food has vapour which is larger and more energetic. Thus it reaches us several metres away. Smell of cold food has lesser vapour which are not that energetic. They can be only smelled from the close.

Thank you!
