Following statements are given:
(A) The average kinetic energy of a gas molecule decreases when the temperature is reduced.
(B) The average kinetic energy of a gas molecule increases with increase in pressure at constant temperature.
(C) The average kinetic energy of a gas molecule decreases with increase in volume.
(D) Pressure of a gas increases with increase in temperature at constant pressure.
(E) The volume of gas decreases with increase in temperature.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
(A) The average kinetic energy of a gas molecule decreases when the temperature is reduced.
(B) The average kinetic energy of a gas molecule increases with increase in pressure at constant temperature.
(C) The average kinetic energy of a gas molecule decreases with increase in volume.
(D) Pressure of a gas increases with increase in temperature at constant pressure.
(E) The volume of gas decreases with increase in temperature.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
(A) & (D) only
(A), (B) & (D) only
(B) & (D) only
(A), (B) & (E) only
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Because KE ∝T so A is correct, B is incorrect, statement C cannot be said, statement D is contradicting itself, statement E is incorrect (Isothermal process)
So No answer correct (Bonus)
If the statement of D would have been.
“Pressure of gas increases with increase in temperature at constant volume, “then statement D would have been correct, so in that case answer would have been ‘A’.

Gas Laws
The gas laws were developed at the end of the 18th century, when scientists began to realize that relationships between pressure, volume and temperature of a sample of gas could be obtained which would hold to approximation for all gases.
The five gas laws are:
- Boyle’s Law, which provides a relationship between the pressure and the volume of a gas.
- Charles’s Law, which provides a relationship between the volume occupied by a gas and the absolute temperature.
- Gay-Lussac’s Law, which provides a relationship between the pressure exerted by a gas on the walls of its container and the absolute temperature associated with the gas.
- Avogadro’s Law, which provides a relationship between the volume occupied by a gas and the amount of gaseous substance.
- The Combined Gas Law (or the Ideal Gas Law), which can be obtained by combining the four laws listed above.
