Detailed Solution

From Graham’s law 

Rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to square root of the molecular weight. Thus, lower mass gases diffuse or effuse at a faster rate.

The average Kinetic energy of a gas molecule 

EK=32RTN=32K.T. where K=RN=Boltzmann constant

So, K.E of a gas depends on temperature.
