Absolute zero (Thermodynamics)


Absolute zero is the temperature at which the particles of matter (molecules and atoms) are at their lowest energy points.

Absolute zero is the lower limit of the thermodynamic temperature scale.
It is a state at which the enthalpy and entropy of a cooled ideal gas reaches its minimum value.  

In kelvin and Rankine temperature scales, absolute zero is 0 kelvin (K) or 0 degrees Rankine (°R).
In The Celsius and Fahrenheit scales, absolute zero is −273.15 °C or −459.67 °F.
