At low temperatures, the molecules are stable and formed. When heated, the movement of the molecules is accelerated, and free and undirected movement occurs, which is melting or flowing. In addition, the movement of molecules is only slow and negligible under any circumstances, but heating can greatly increase the movement of molecules. Chocolate contains 30% fat, of which 60% is saturated fat. However, the saturated fat in chocolate contains unique stearic acid, cocoa beans and sugar. Chocolate becomes soft when heated and hard when cooled. 2What nutrients are contained in chocolate?1. Chocolate contains a variety of nutrients, which are very important for maintaining good health.
