In terms of Charles' law explain why `-273^@C` is the lowest possible temperature.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

According to Charle.s law if we put the value of `t = -273^@ C`
in the equation `V_t = V_0 [(273.15 + 1)/(273 .15 )]`
In this case the volume of the gas becomes zero.
` V_0 =` Volume at `0^@ C `
`V_t`= Volume at `t^@ C `
` to ` This means the gas will not exist
` to ` In fact all gases liquified before this temperature.
