🔍 Key Concepts

• Critical temperature of a refrigerant and what it means for phase change • How a condenser works in a vapor‑compression refrigeration system • Definitions of subcooling and sublimation in thermodynamics

💭 Think About

• Think about what must be true (in terms of temperature and pressure) for a vapor to change into a liquid in the condenser. • Ask yourself: above the critical temperature, is it still possible to have a distinct liquid phase of that refrigerant, no matter how much you raise the pressure? • Consider which option best matches what happens when a refrigerant can no longer change from vapor to liquid in the condenser.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the definition of critical temperature: can condensation occur above this temperature? • Recall that subcooling means liquid cooled below its saturation temperature, so you must already have liquid present. • Check what sublimation actually describes (solid ↔ vapor) and whether a solid phase exists anywhere in a normal ammonia refrigeration condenser.
