The absolute zero pressure can be attained at a temperature of
A. 0°C
B. -273°C
C. 273 K
D. None of these
Give explanation
How?
Absolute pressure = Gauge Pressure + Atmospheric Pressure
Absolute p= gauge p+ atmo p= 25+1.03=26.03
Abs pressure = gauge pressure + atm pressure
absolute pressure = gauge pressure + atmospheric pressure
