The statement above is a limitation of the kinetic molecular theory. Kinetic molecular theory is a theory which is based on the assumption that gases are made up of large number of particles which behave like spherical objects in a state of constant, random motion in space. These particles move in a straight path until they collide with another particle or the wall of the container.
