In a refrigeration system using R-134a, which consequence results from compressor overheating and Freon molecular decomposition?

💡 Explanation

Decomposition of R-134a releases fluorine which reacts with trace moisture via nucleophilic substitution. This bond breakage forms hydrofluoric acid (HF), because HF formation reduces system PH; therefore, corrosion risk increases rather than viscosity or pressure relief.
