The law described is Gay-Lussac's Law, which states that the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature when the volume remains constant. Therefore, if the absolute temperature of a gas in a rigid container is doubled, the pressure will also double, assuming the amount of gas does not change. This relationship highlights the direct correlation between temperature and pressure in gas behavior.
Kelvin is the absolute temperature - a temperature where absolute zero, the lowest temperature possible, is defined as zero. Therefore, in the phrase "absolute Kelvin", the word "absolute" seems redundant.
Charles's Law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure. By extrapolating the relationship between volume and temperature to a point where the volume approaches zero (absolute zero), the temperature at which this occurs can be determined. This temperature is considered to be absolute zero, the theoretical lowest temperature possible.
Temperature, as understood by physicists, essentially means the kinetic motion of particles: the more (subatomic) particle motion there is in an object, the hotter the object. If all of the particles in a particular object were to stop moving (and this is really hard, if not impossible to do), then the object would have an absolute temperature of 0 degrees. Scientists use the Kelvin scale to denote this concept of absolute temperature. In the Kelvin scale 0 degrees stands for absolute zero (absolutely no motion of any particles within an object). 0 degrees Kelvin corresponds roughly to -273.15 degrees Celcius, or -459.67 degrees Fahrenheit.
The measurement that starts with absolute zero is temperature measured in Kelvin. In the Kelvin scale, absolute zero is the point at which all thermal motion ceases, making it the lowest possible temperature.
-459.67 F Which is absolute zero and that is the temperature at which all molecular activity stops.

No, the temprature in space is roughly -270°C whereas Absolute zero would be −273.15°C. At the point of Absolute zero molecules, themselves, stop moving.It's close, but not absolute.
Yes, there is a theoretical limit to temperature called the Planck temperature, which is approximately 1.416 x 1032 Kelvin. This is considered the highest possible temperature in the universe.
No.
The Kelvin scale is an absolute temperature scale where 0K represents absolute zero. The absolute temperature scale refers to any temperature scale that starts at absolute zero, such as the Kelvin scale. So, the Kelvin scale is a specific type of absolute temperature scale.
Absolute zero on the Celsius temperature scale is -273.15 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, molecules have minimal kinetic energy and theoretically cease all motion. It is considered the lowest possible temperature that can be reached, where thermal energy is at its minimum.
Absolute temperature is a thermodynamic temperature and is used as the standard temperature unit. Temperature comes from the kinetic energy of a matters particle and random motions. When motion stops, it is considered absolute zero.
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.
NO We can think of temperature as mass with a speed. No mass no temperature, no speed, no temperature. Therefore, if mass went to absolute zero, it would have no speed and could not oscillate (emit energy) in the first place. So most agree that no mass can go to absolute rest in the first place.
Absolute temperature is a temperature measured on a scale that starts at absolute zero, where particles have minimal motion. The most common absolute temperature scale is the Kelvin scale, where 0 K is equivalent to -273.15 degrees Celsius. Absolute temperature is used in thermodynamics and physics to describe the energy of a system.
Absolute zero is achieved when the atoms in a substance stop moving completely. At -273.15C or -459.67F. True absolute zero cannot be reached, but it can be approached to within a few millionths of a degree.
