Question

select the correct answer.
what is the lowest temperature that a substance can reach?
a. freezing point
b. absolute zero
c. minimum temperature
d. there is no lowest temperature

Explanation:

Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature where all molecular motion stops. It is defined as \(0\) Kelvin (\(0\ K\)) or \(- 273.15^{\circ}C\). The freezing point is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a solid, which varies for different substances. The statement "minimum temperature" is too vague without context. And according to the laws of thermodynamics, absolute zero is the theoretical lowest temperature limit.

Answer:

B. absolute zero
