Kinetic theory of gases

Kinetic theory of gases is a generalization offered by Maxwell. Boltzmann, Clausius, etc. to explain the behaviour of ideal gases. This theory assumes that ideal gas molecules neither attract nor repel each other. Average kinetic energy of gas molecules is directly proportional to the absolute temperature. A gas equation called kinetic gas equation was derived on the basis of kinetic theory PV = (1)/(3) mv^(2) Which of the following do not pertain to the postulates of kinetic theory of gaes ?
