Can I easily change this outlet to a 3 prong? HomeImprovement

I have the outlet in the picture below. I need to swap it out to a 3 prong because I wish to plug in a small refrigerator and everything in the manual says not to use adapter, etc, so I'd like to do it the right way. I tried to move it around a little bit and noticed it has two black and two white wires attached to it but promptly stopped as I accidentally touched it to the metal box and was quickly reminded as to why electricity freaks me out. This outlet is literally about 5 feet from my electric panel . I've tried watching YouTube videos but i always end up getting more confused. I do have another outlet further down the wall I would probably want to replace too. Thanks for any help!
