Inversion temperature: The temperature at which the Joule "Thomson effect for a given gas changes sign. So that the gas is neither heated nor cooled when allowed to expand without expending energy.

Refer 26th question of this section.

In an ideal gas, no work is required to tear apart the molecules due to the absence of attractive forces in an ideal gas.

Hence when any ideal gas undergoes unrestrained expansion, no cooling occurs.

Option (D) is correct.
