Temperature will remain constant, because the heat is being used up during the condensation

Answer:

The temperature remains constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Condensation is a process in which phase change takes place. There is no change in temperature during any phase change processes.

Condensation is a cooling process where the vapor gives out all its heat. So the heat content decreases and creates the bonding to form liquid. This heat output or given out is not used to change the average speed of the molecules. Kinetic energy depends on the square of the speed of the molecules.

So the temperature stays constant because the average kinetic energy remains constant.
