Question
what is absolute zero?
the theoretical highest temperature
the theoretical lowest temperature
the theoretical temperature at which degrees celsius equals zero.
Absolute zero is the theoretical lowest temperature. At this temperature, all molecular motion stops. It is \(0\) on the Kelvin scale (\(K\)) and \(- 273.15^{\circ}C\). The first option (theoretical highest temperature) is incorrect as it is the opposite. The third option (theoretical temperature at which degrees Celsius equals zero) is also wrong because \(0^{\circ}C\) is not absolute zero.
