    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

    A vapour absorption refrigerator uses Aqua-ammonia as a refrigerant.
    In the vapor absorption system the refrigerant used is ammonia, water or lithium bromide. The refrigerant gets condensed in the condenser and it gets evaporated in the evaporator. The refrigerant produces cooling effect in the evaporator and releases the heat to the atmosphere via the condenser.
