Answer:
Particles have no kinetic energy at all so no energy can be removed and the temperature cannot get any lower. With no kinetic energy and now stationary, the particles will exert no pressure either. Using this idea of absolute zero , it makes sense to create a new temperature scale – one where 'zero' is 'absolute zero'.
