If you plan to use the canned food to make something that should remain cold, pre-chilling it in the fridge is a good idea; for instance, tuna for tuna Sandwiches or canned fruit to use in Gelatin desserts or canned cranberry sauce to serve with turkey.
Long term refrigerated storage might not a good idea since the high moisture of a refrigerator could cause the cans to rust.
Yes, although there is no particular value in doing so. Food canned properly will not readily spoil (although it should be used before the "use by" date, refrigerated or not). But do not freeze canned food; the water-based liquid will expand when frozen and stretch or burst the can. Also consistency of the food will be harmed.
According to Buchtmann, you shouldn't store an opened can in the fridge once opened, as "the can dissolve into the food, giving it a metallic taste".
Canned fruit can last years when left unopened. Most cans have dates on the side however, so it is best to check, as some fruits may expire earlier die to acidity.
Unopened can will explode if heated directly on a stove.
This is not a good idea. Cans are metal and can leave a bad taste on food if the food stays in the can after opening. Place foods in an air tight container and place the food in the refrigerator for storage.

Temperature can have an effect on unopened cans of food. The ideal temperature to store canned food at is 65 degrees Fahrenheit. A 15-degree increase (80 degrees) can reduce shelf life by as much as 50 percent.
Vegetables, pet food, aerosol cans, fruit and fruit juices, seafoods, and baby food were all commonly packaged in steel cans.
10 cans are needed to pepare 2 litres of fruit juice :) Hope helped.
Baked beans may be baked in a ceramic pot, an iron kettle or any casserole dish. Leftover baked beans should be kept in the refrigerator. Unopened cans of baked beans should be stored in a cool dry place, usually the kitchen pantry.
This might depend on a) what is in the cans b) how accurate the scales are If a can with liquid in it is left open overnight some moisture may be lost by evaporation - making it slightly lighter than the unopened can. If a can is open, some particles of dust might drift into it - more than would settle on an unopened can - and make it slightly heavier than the unopened can. However, If the can has nuts in it I'll be tempted to take one or two, or a handful - making it considerably lighter than the unopened one.
The acids in the fruit would react with the steel, creating hard swells or leakers. Cans now are lined with coatings that delay such reactions.
Yes.
