Solution

The correct option is C

molecular motion ceases.


At absolute zero (i.e. 0 K) vrms becomes zero. Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature where no heat energy remains in a particle and the particle does not has enough energy to move therefore its motion ceases at molecular level.
