Question
what is absolute zero?
the theoretical highest temperature
the theoretical temperature at which degrees celsius equals zero.
the theoretical lowest temperature
Absolute zero is the theoretical lowest temperature. At this temperature, all molecular motion stops. It is defined as 0 Kelvin (\(0\ \text{K}\)) or \(- 273.15^{\circ}\text{C}\). The first option is incorrect as it refers to the highest temperature. The second option is wrong because when Celsius is \(0^{\circ}\text{C}\), it is \(273.15\ \text{K}\) (not absolute zero).
