When chocolate melts, then you put it somewhere thats cool and it hardens up again? Technically freezing?!


Question: Is that not technically freezing. Please don't try and prove me wrong because I'm not saying it is or isn't either way.


Answers: Is that not technically freezing. Please don't try and prove me wrong because I'm not saying it is or isn't either way.

No it is not freezing, here's why:
The melting point of solid chocolate is roughly 96 degrees F. below that temperature, chocolate returns to a solid state, warmer temperatures allow for slower solidifying times.

Just like melting something like solder or lead they have higher melting points and when heat is removed then it solidifies and returns back to its solid state. Freezing is achieved at a temperature below 32 degrees F. or 0 C. over those temperatures the object is not frozen.

No, it's solidifying.

It would not be technically freezing because chocolate is a solid in its natural state.
