High __________ is an undesirable property for a good refrigerant.

A. Specific heat

B. Latent heat of vaporisation

C. Viscosity

D. Specific vapor volume

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

High viscosity is obviously an undesirable property of good refrigerant as it increases the losses of energy converts the useful energy in to non-conservative frictional energy.
