Absolute zero
Absolute zero is the point where no more heat can be removed from an object. This corresponds to 0 K or -273.15°C. In classical kinetic theory, there should be no movement of individual molecules at absolute zero, but experimental evidences shows the opposite. Actually,at absolute zero, the oscillation of atoms are the slowest they can possibly be. Even at absolute zero, the motion doesn't completely stop.
