Hello,
The good answer is your second proposal.
We'll say : "Whose pen is this/that/it ?"
Have a nice day

Hello,
I can tell you the second one is far better than the first one.

Hello !
Dans le lien donné par willy, les deux modèles sont donnés à condition de rajouter un verbe à la première !
We use whose to ask about possession:
Whose coat is this? [or] Whose is this coat?
Whose book is that? [or] Whose is that book?
Whose bags are those? [or] Whose are those bags?
On doit se souvenir que 'whose est suivi de l'objet possédé sans article', mais la première construction est correcte !
Whose book is this ? = Whose is this book ? la première étant plus correcte !
Courage !

Hello!

Hello!
We have to use helping verb definitely while asking a question.
So, the second one is right.
