Which outcome results when a refrigeration cycle's evaporator coil ices over completely?

💡 Explanation

When the evaporator coil ices over, the thermal resistance increases because the ice acts as an insulator, reducing heat transfer and causing compressor overheating due to inefficient refrigerant evaporation. Therefore reduced cooling and compressor overheating result, rather than efficiency increases, lower pressure, or enhanced transfer, which require effective heat exchange.
