When chocolate gets warm, it turns from a hard solid into a runny liquid. When it cools down again, it becomes hard.
In the picture
- Chocolate over hot steam: solid pieces turning into liquid
- Melted chocolate: a runny, shiny liquid
- Cooled chocolate: firm and solid again
Examples
- Butter softens and melts in a hot pan, then turns firm again in the fridge.
- Ice cream melts into a puddle in the sun and can be frozen again.
Key takeaways
- Heat turns a solid food into a liquid.
- Cooling turns the liquid back into a solid.
