Wikipedia MP> also adds that it is the temperature where the volume or pressure MP> of a gas becomes zero. Makes sense but also not make sense: I'm thinking if everything stops then there is no interactive force to hold things together so eventually would fall apart, but then if things slowed gradually to no motion then no residual motion (kinetic).
