The temperature at which the volume of a gas is zero

The temperature at which the second virial coefficient of a real gas is zero is called .

Assertion: Absolute zero temperature is a theoretically possible temperature at which the volume of the gas becomes zero. Reason: The total kinetic energy of molecules is zero at this temperature.

Near room temperature , the thermo emf of a thermo couple is 40 muV per degree. A galvanometer of 25 Omega and capable of detecting current of the order of 4 mu A is used. Calcualate the smallest temperature difference that can be detected with this galvanometer.
