$(A)$ the mean free path of the molecules decreases.
$(B)$ the mean collision time between the molecules decreases.
$(C)$ the mean free path remains unchanged.
$(D)$ the mean collision time remains unchanged.
(Given, mean kinetic energy of a molecule (at $T$ ) is $4 \times 10^{-14}$ erg, $g=980\, cm / s ^{2}$, density of mercury $=13.6\, g / cm ^{3}$)
