Absolute Zero:



Absolute Zero:

Sham S. Misri

The lowest temperature of all is called absolute zero. 00 Kelvin, (-2730 C) or (-4600 F). Molecules stop moving. Scientists have cooled substances almost to absolute zero, but the exact temperature can never be reached.

Near absolute zero, the physical properties of some materials change substantially; For example, some metals lose their electrical resistance and become superconductive.
At absolute zero temperature molecules become motionless. Oxygen, which is a gas, becomes liquid at (-2180 C).


Celsius temperatures are marked with a ‘C’, (also called Centigrade) scale of temperature. In this scale, water   freezes at 00 C and boils at 1000 C.
Temperature at the centre of the sun is about 15 million Celsius.
Temperature at the centre of the Earth is about 45000 Celsius.
Normal body temperature is 370 C or 98.60 F
