What is the function of the freezing compartment in a fridge?

The function of a freezing compartment in a refrigerator is to create a separate compartment at a colder temperature than the main refrigerator compartment. The food items put in this area are cooled, typically to 0 degrees Fahrenheit, for long term storage. The freezing compartment is also used for items such as ice cream or to freeze water into ice cubes, which are used for cooling your favorite beverage.

Why your fridge freeze things?

If you mean, why does my fridge freeze things? It means that it is set a temperature that is too cold. Set it about 6-7 degrees above freezing. You should have a thermostat to use. It could also be affected by the setting in your actual freezer. Especially if you have a two or three door model with the freezer at the bottom of the unit. Check to see what your freezer setting is. It should be able to be dialed from "Warmer", "Colder" and "Coldest" settings. The last two settings are so cold they may affect the fridge temp as well as the freezer.


Why is temperature controlled in refrigerators?

simply to keep food fresh. If the fridge's temp is too high, food will warm to room temperature and go off faster. Too cold, then the food will freeze! Everytime you open the fridge door you are letting room temperature air inside, increasing the temperature of the air inside the fridge, therefore the fridge (if automatic) will measure the temperature and make the air to the right temperature.


Is the temperature in a refrigerator constant or does it vary throughout the fridge?

The temperature will vary throughout the fridge, particularly after a fresh load is added. But even in 'steady state', the upper of the container will be warmer than the lower. For cold air sinks by virtue of its higher density.It varies. It will be colder at the bottom than at the top. The temperature difference will only be 1 or 2 degrees at most.... Incidentally - the word is 'does' - not 'dose' !

Why did the ice in the beaker melt in the cold fridge?

The ice melts because the temperature in the refrigerator is above freezing point. This is normal, a refrigerator usually has a temperature of around 4 degrees Celsius.


Will food freeze at 30 degrees in a fridge?

that would be a NO! The freezing point of water is 0 degrees centigrade or 32 degree farhneit .Hence food will freeze only in a freezer as it maintains a temperature below freezing point of water, and not in a refrigerator because the refrigerator maintains a temperature that is few degrees above the freezing point.(3-5 degree celsius or 37 to 41 degree farhneit)

When ice cream is taken out of the freezer and into the fridge it melts why?

Ice cream needs to be kept below freezing, because it has ICE in it, and ice needs to be kept at 0 degrees centigrade or lower. On average a fridge is 4 degrees centigrade so it will melt in the fridge...


How is the wine cooler related to the fridge?

A wine cooler is specifically designed to store wine from a temperature and humidity standpoint. The temperature of a wine cooler can range between 45 and 65 degrees Fahrenheit. A kitchen fridge is usually set around 35 degrees and has lower humidity. The best long term average storage temperature for wine is about 55 degrees. This will store and age wine properly. This is too wine for a kitchen fridge.
