The choice is generally made by referring to the temperatures that you want to achieve.

With packaged AC units it is decided by the manufacturer.

1) R410A, R134A, R407C
2) R404A, R507A, R717, R744

Brian already answered for the technical reason. Basicly, what we want to achieve is the highest possible evaporating pressure compared to the evaporating temperature, to reduce the compression ratio and the compression heat as much as possible.
