A.
Enthalpy
Answer
B.
Entropy
C.
Pressure
D.
None of these

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
Joule – thomson throttling process is an iso-enthalpic process since pressure change is done at constant enthalpy that means a pressure change will occur but a corresponding internal energy change also occurs and enthalpy remains constant.
Since
