Given below are two statements : Statement I : The average momentum of a molecule in a sample of an ideal gas depends on temperature. Statement II : The rms speed of oxygen molecules in a gas is $v$. If the temperature is doubled and the oxygen molecules dissociate into oxygen atoms, the rms speed will become $2 v$. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
