Heat absorbed + Work done in it = heat rejected.

Because the heat rejected also contains the miscellaneous heat that is produced by the refrigerators part, along with the heat absorbed.

Heat rejected from a refrigerator is always greater than heat absorption, because of not only the heat from the substance but also the heat generated during the working of the compressor.

Here the work done can't be a negative value in COP formula, i.e. if Qh-QL is -ve value then COP= -ve value, which is not possible.

The refrigerant available in the form of vapour. If there is no heat rejection is does not takes place in condenser the vapour does not produce any refrigeration effect. That's why we reject the heat more than absorption.

Always energy is released higher form to lower form.

Answer is C because heat is rejected always at higher temperatures that's why we require the more work to reject temp.

Yeah! answer C is Right. Agree.

This is because, some mechanical work also to be done by machine to reject the absorbed heat from a lower temperature to high temperature.

For extracting heat from low temperature to high temperature. We need to input some power or work. As in case of 2nd law of thermodynamics.

We have to maintain lower temperature for cooling purpose and have to extract heat from lower temperature. And reject it to higher temperature level.
