The Ideal chain model is a polymer that is built up of ideal gas like monomers forming a chain having a fixed bond length. The monomers have zero excluded volume, so they are free to overlap with impunity. Given that, a snapshot of a configuration of an ideal chain having bonds will look exactly like the the result of steps of a random walk.
