Question

In term of Charles law explain why minus 273 degree Celsius is the lowest possible temperature

Answer 1

Answer:

According to Charle's law,the volume of a given mass of a gas at a constant pressure will vary linearly with absolute temperature. ... Since an ideal gas would occupy zero volume at absolute zero of temperature,it is often thought to be the lowest temperature possible.

Explanation:

Charles found that for all gases, at any given pressure, the graph of volume vs temperature (in Celsius) is a straight line and on extending to zero volume, each line intercepts the temperature axis at – 273.15 ° C.

We can see that the volume of the gas at – 273.15 ° C will be zero. This means that gas will not exist. In fact, all the gases get liquified before this temperature is reached.
