The kinetic energy of the molecules is directly proportional to the velocity or speed of the molecules.

According to the kinetic theory of gases,

As the temperature is decreased, the average kinetic energy of the molecules also decreases.

Thus, the speed of the molecules in the cold temperature decreases.

Hence, option C is the correct answer.
