Detailed Solution

$\begin{array}{l} {KE}_{avg} = \frac{3}{2} KT \\ P = \frac{1}{3} {ρV}_{rms}^{2} \end{array}$

So the kinetic energy will only depend on the temperature

So if temperature decreases the Kinetic energy will reduce, and if the temperature is constant the Kinetic energy will be constant.

At constant volume, pressure is directly proportional to temperature.

At constant pressure, volume is directly proportional to temperature
