Answer

B

B.

The question asks about the entropy at absolute zero temperature. This is directly addressed by the Third Law of Thermodynamics.

The Third Law of Thermodynamics states that the entropy of a perfect crystal at absolute zero (0 Kelvin) is zero. This means that at absolute zero, a system is in its most ordered state, and there is no thermal motion, leading to the lowest possible entropy.

  • A. Maximum: This is incorrect. Entropy tends to increase with temperature.
  • B. Minimum: This is correct. At absolute zero, entropy reaches its minimum possible value (zero for a perfect crystal).
  • C. Infinite: This is incorrect.
  • D. Undefined: This is incorrect.

The correct option is B.
