C) A car converts chemical potential energy into heat and kinetic energy. D) It is impossible to reduce the temperature of a substance to absolute zero. Submit

Respuesta :

Answer;

B) All items in the freezer are at the same temperature as each other.

Explanation;

  • According to the Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics, if two systems are each in thermal equilibrium with a third system, then they are also in thermal equilibrium with each other.
  • The zeroth law is important as it allows us to define the concept of a temperature scale.  Zeroth Law results from thermal equilibrium and allows a conclusion that temperature is a physical quantity.
  • In our case, a good example will be the fact that All items in the freezer are at the same temperature as each other, as they are sharing the temperature provided by the refrigerator.
