Australia has set a November deadline to zero, for Japan to stop whaling in Antarctic waters, or face international court action.

It's much more relevant to set our zero point energy as the separation of a bond in terms of talking about the reactions that we'll usually be dealing with here.

更好的是把零点能定在,键断裂的时刻,在讨论化学反应的时候,而我们以后将经常遇到化学反应。

You know, if you want to measure the potential energy of something in a gravitational field, you have to define the zero somewhere, right, because it's arbitrary. You can set it anywhere you want. It's the same with enthalpy.

你知道，如果你想测量重力场,中某种东西的势能，你需要，在某处定义一个零点，对吧？,因为势能的值是任意的,你可以把它设定在。

Good, take a derivative and Set it equal to zero.

好的,求导,然后呢,令它等于0

All right, so you can't get perfect efficiency, 0 but at least if you were able to go to zero degrees Kelvin, then you'd be all set.

好吧，你得不到完美的效率，但至少如果能把温度降到,那你就万事俱备了。

The absolute number that you assign to it is something that's arbitrary. You have to set what the zero is. And so there's a well-understood convention for what the zero is.

你指定给它的绝对值是有任意性的,你需要设定零点的位置,因此有一个经过充分研究的,关于设定零点的约定。
