No. It will stay the same (or actually get warmer).
The way a fridge works is it needs energy to make the inside colder. This energy is expelled into the room as heat, as it replaces the warm air in the fridge with colder air, it expels this warmer air into the room. So if the fridge was open, it would be making the air colder inside, but also warmer at the same time because it keeps outputting heat somewhere else. So these effects would cancel out, and actually it uses more heat than it makes cold, so the room would get warmer.

No, the room will not get cooler. The fridge is a heat pump, so it takes heat from inside of it and disperses it into the room it is in. The same thing with a window air conditioner.

It will get warmer. A refrigerator does not create cold, it just takes the heat away from the inside and dumps it in the room, through the heat exchanger located in the back.
Since this process is not 100% efficient, a bit more energy is needed to drive the pump and compressor, and gets lost as entropy, leading to a fridge dumping more heat than it takes away from the inside.

No, it will get warmer. The refrigerator will pump heat from inside the box to the outside, which will make no difference since the door is open, but the motor running to do so will create additional heat.

that's not that poisonous. it won't harm you. in basic terms clean it up with the bleach and water. The fumes from the bleach are in all probability extra risky than the mold on your refrigerator. If the smell gets to good the take a destroy or activate a fan.

if you leave the doors open it should stay about rooms temp.
if you close the doors it'll get warmer
your better off buying a AC
