Celsius to Kelvin Temperature Conversion
The question requires converting a given temperature from Celsius ($^\circ\text{C}$) to the Kelvin (K) scale.
Conversion Formula
The relationship between the Celsius scale and the Kelvin scale is defined by the formula:
$ T_\text{K} = T_\text{C} + 273.15 $
Here, $T_\text{K}$ represents the temperature in Kelvin and $T_\text{C}$ represents the temperature in Celsius.
Calculation
The given temperature is:
$ T_\text{C} = -273.15^\circ\text{C} $
Substitute this value into the conversion formula:
$ T_\text{K} = (-273.15) + 273.15 $
Performing the addition:
$ T_\text{K} = 0 \text{ K} $
Result
The temperature $-273.15^\circ\text{C}$ is equivalent to $0 \text{ K}$.
This specific temperature, $0 \text{ K}$, is recognized as absolute zero, the lowest possible temperature theoretically achievable.
