Why the smell of hot food reaches us faster than cold food?

Answers (1)

Smell of hot food reaches us faster because of its high temperature the particles of gas diffuse and spread faster than solid and liquid particles. Whereas, if the same food is allowed to cool its temperature decreases due to which rate of diffusion slows down and thus, we have to go close to smell the cold food.
