B

At absolute zero temperature, the entropy of a perfectly crystalline substance is +ve

C

At absolute zero temperature, the entropy of all crystalline substances is zero

D

At `0^(@)C` the entropy of a perfectly crystalline solid is zero.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Entropy of perfectly crystalline solids will be zero at absolute zero. It is predicted in the third law of thermodynamics.
