The correct answer is:
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
Average translational kinetic energy of a gas molecule is $E=\frac{3}{2} k T$
For all gas molecules
$E=\frac{3}{2} k T \times N_A=\frac{3}{2} R T=\frac{3}{2} P V$
For all gas molecules
$E=\frac{3}{2} k T \times N_A=\frac{3}{2} R T=\frac{3}{2} P V$
