No gas can exist in the gaseous state at `-273^(@)C`.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand why no gas can exist in the gaseous state at -273°C, we can break down the explanation into several steps: ### Step 1: Understanding Absolute Zero - Absolute zero is defined as 0 Kelvin (K), which is equivalent to -273.15°C. This is the theoretical lowest temperature possible. ### Step 2: Molecular Motion at Absolute Zero - At absolute zero, all molecular motion ceases. This means that the kinetic energy of the gas molecules becomes zero. Kinetic energy is directly related to temperature; as temperature decreases, kinetic energy decreases. ...
