Question
Chapter 13, Problem 39A
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The meaning of absolute zero is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Temperature is a physical concept that expresses how hot or cold a substance is. The thermal energy that is present in the body or item is represented by temperature. Kelvin is used as the SI unit of temperature.
Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 39A
Absolute zero is the minimum possible temperature.
Explanation of Solution
The absolute lowest temperature at which a substance can exist is zero degrees. Since absolute zero's temperature is zero on the Kelvin scale, it is also referred to as zero Kelvin. The fundamental particles of nature exhibit the least amount of vibrational motion at this temperature.
