🔍 Key Concepts

• Behavior of water/moisture at different pressures and temperatures in a refrigeration system • Location and function of the condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator • What happens when water turns to ice inside small orifices or passages

💭 Think About

• Trace the path of the refrigerant through the system and think about where the lowest temperatures occur • Ask yourself: in which component would moisture be most likely to freeze and block flow rather than just travel with the refrigerant? • Consider whether a strainer is designed to remove water, or only solid particles, and what effect that has on the options

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which component operates at the coldest temperature and lowest pressure • Decide whether water would more likely boil, stay liquid, or freeze at that point in the cycle • Confirm whether strainers are meant for moisture removal or for solid debris only
