Step-by-step explanation:

As you cool a matter to absolute zero, their kinetic energy reduces significantly and the molecules slows down and begins to aggregate together.

  • Cooling involves the removal of heat energy from a body.
  • Heat increases the thermal energy of system.
  • As heat is added, the molecules gain more kinetic energy.
  • This shown in their increase motion.
  • When heat is withdrawn, the particles slows down.
