Best Answer

Air conditioning cools the air inside the car making the car a pleasant temperature for the passengers. A compressor is a unit that works to condition the air. The compressor is a fan with blades that move at very high rate of speed. It is responsible for getting the refrigerant to the outside of the blades, where it will then be pressurized and shot out into the condenser.
