Joule-Thomson experiment is__________________?
Correct answer: C. Both B. & C.
- A. Isobaric
- B. Adiabatic
- C. Both B. & C.
- D. Isenthalpic
Explanation
In the Joule-Thomson experiment, the porous-plug process is steady-flow, adiabatic, and has negligible changes in kinetic and potential energy, giving h1 = h2. Thus it is both adiabatic and isenthalpic.
