Is equal to 0 k .This is because an absolute zero temperature is the temperature in which nothing can be cooled. The standard measurment for temperature is celcius which is already 0 but when we are converting 0 K to celcius we will gwt 273 celcius which is definitely not an absolute zero

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute zero is defined as the lowest temperature at which motion of particles is the least and heat would be minimal.

Absolute temperature is represented as zero kelvin and it is also equivalent to
-273.15^(o)C.

For example, an hour old cup of a tea is actually colder than fire over a stove but hotter than an ice cube.

Therefore, we can conclude that the incorrect answer below concerning absolute zero is that it is equal to
0^(o)C.
