Answer
Kinetic molecular theory assumes that:
1. Gases consist of tiny particles which are in random motion at all time.
2. Collision between molecules and the walls of container are perfectly elastic and attractive and repulsive forces between the molecules are negligible.
3. Gas particles are small compared to average distance between them.
4. The average Kinetic energy of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas.
