Which mechanism rapidly cools water during adiabatic expansion?

A)The Joule-Thomson Effect
B)Latent heat dissipation
C)Increased convection cooling
D)Radiative heat losses

💡 Explanation

Adiabatic expansion during the Joule-Thomson Effect absorbs heat internally during expansion forces causing cooling because overcoming intermolecular attraction consumes energy, decreasing temperature; therefore, the expansion causes cooling rather than immediate freezing or radiative cooling.
