choose the incorrect answer below concerning absolute zero. a) lowest possible temperature b) theoretical temperature at which gas molecules have no kinetic energy c) is equal to 0°c d) is equal to 0 k
Answer:
c) is equal to 0°c
Explanation:
Absolute zero is lowest possible theoretical temperature at which all particles exhibit the lowest possible thermal motion. On a thermodynamic scale, absolute zero is equal to zero kelvin
Therefore:
a) True. Since absolute zero is theoretically the lowest possible temperature
b) True. At absolute zero, kinetic energy can be considered to be very nearly zero
c) False. Absolute zero = 0 K = -273 C
d) True. Absolute zero = 0 K
