For example, if  a molecule of air hits a warmer object, then the molecule will rebound with greater kinetic energy. How does this work? Why?

Heat is transferable through the increase in speed of kinetic energy. For example, as soon as colder air confronts a warmer object, the molecules within the space in question will quickly increase in temperature due to the speed of kinetic molecules (heat). This is ultimately called conduction.

the heat is transfered which adds energy.  the warmer object will lose heat and lose kinetic energy.
