Question

Which of the following cools the air in a household refrigerator?

A. Absorption of the heat from the air due to evaporation of the liquid refrigerant
B. Reduction of the air temperature due to condensation of the gaseous refrigerant
C. The transfer of heat to the evaporator due to compression of the liquid refrigerant
D. The transfer of heat from the air to the compressor due to expansion of the gaseous refrigerant

Answer 1

Absorption of the heat from the air due to evaporation of the liquid refrigerant

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The answer is A since refrigeration occurs when the normal room temperature heat is drawn away from the inside of the unit through the evaporation of a liquid. Through the process of entropy then, the air instantly cools to the right temperature to preserve food.
