Temperature is the average of all the kinetic energy in something. What we Perceive as "cold" is something with much lower temperature, and thus lower average kinetic energy, than our own, however matter does not have a perception of "cold" or "hot". Additionally, solids (matter below its freezing point) continues to vibrate on a molecular level until Absolute zero is reached, at which point, all molecular movement ceases. It is important to note that the freezing point of materials varies greatly: For example tungsten has a freezing point of greater than 3000 degrees C! It is not actually theoretically possible to attain absolute zero , as the system at absolute zero would need to be removed from the rest of the universe according to the laws of thermodynamics. Additionally,even if you could, the particles would still move with some subtle quantum mechanical effects.
Absolute Zero.. 0 kelvin,
Yes the melting temperature and the freezing temperature of materials are the same.
This is called the melting (or freezing) point
Absolute zero is the theoretical lowest possible temperature. More formally, it is the theoretical temperature at which entropy reaches its minimum value. The laws of thermodynamics state that absolute zero cannot be reached using only thermodynamic means. A system at absolute zero still possesses quantum mechanical zero-point energy, the energy of its ground state. The kinetic energy of the ground state cannot be removed. However, in the classical interpretation, it is zero and the thermal energy of matter vanishes.
No, but they are related. Absolute zero is the coldest possible temperature. Absolute temperature is the temperature above this coldest possible temperature - i.e., how much hotter is it than the coldest theoretically possible temperature. Celsius temperature isn't absolute. It starts from the temperature of freezing water, and it needs negative numbers for anything colder than that. Fahrenheit temperature isn't absolute. It says that zero is 32 degrees colder than freezing water, and it needs negative numbers for anything colder than that. Absolute temperature starts from absolute zero. Nothing is colder than that, so absolute temperature is never a negative number.
Freezing is the act/process of freezing something. Freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid substance turns solid. This is due to the slowing down of its molecules due to lack of energy (no heat).

No. Absolute zero is -273 degrees celsius. A reading of zero celsius is the freezing point of water.
No, 0 degrees Celsius is freezing temperature. You can go into the negatives.
temperature below freezing point of water.
This would depend on the freezing temperature of the material, and therefore, also on the type of material in question. At absolute zero, a theoretical temperature, all motion of the particles stops.
Absolute Zero.. 0 kelvin,
Absolute zero, melting/freezing point of pure water, and boiling point of pure water.
32 degrees Fahrenheit (or 0 degrees celsius) is the point of freezing.
Kelvin is essentially based on the same scale as Centigrade.I.E. In centigrade, 0 is the freezing point of water, 100 is the boiling point of water.But for Kelvin 0 is "ABSOLUTE ZERO".273.15 is the freezing point of water.373.15 is the boiling point of water.It is a handy scale for calculations such as the ideal gas law, PV=nRT, which is based on the temperature in Kelvin (or the offset of the temperature from absolute zero).
