Butter should be fine at room temperature for a few days. But it needs to be covered and ideally kept in a butterball where the temperature is cooler. If it is hot out the butter should be refrigerated and wrapped tightly to prevent spoilage or the butter from absorbing other smells.

∙ 14y agoi don't think so, because it might blow up.

∙ 11y agoYes, there is no problem chilling or even freezing butter that has been softened. If it got too warm it might separate a little, but it is still fine to use.

∙ 10y agoYes, you can chill or even freeze butter that has been softened. If it got too warm it might separate a little, but it is still fine to use, butter used to be left in a pantry or lada.

∙ 13y agoYes, it can go bad if the room is hot and it will melt. You can get moldy butter if left out. A few days at room temp is okay if cool in the kitchen as long as it's covered, say 68-75 about.

∙ 10y agoIt is not unusual to store butter on the counter for a few days or even up to a week. You can place it back in the fridge after 48 hours and it's still good.

Over time - if you repeat the process a lot of times, the butter will begin to separate.

It is reversible because you can boil away the water and it will leave behind the sugar.
Is melted butter and irreversible change?
Typically, yes. Butter is a mixture of fat and milk solids. Once melted the fats separate from the milk solids. 'Clarified' butter, or ghee, is the separated butter fat, often used in Indian cooking, as a canning sealer, or as a dip for steamed shellfish. Clarified butter, once separated from the milk solids, does not require refrigeration to keep it from going rancid, however, it must be kept cool to maintain its solidity.
Is it a chemical or physical change when melted butter solidifies in the refrigerator?
This is a physical change.
When melted butter soldifies in the refrigerator is that physical or chemical change?

Is melting butter a physical change or chemical change?
As you may know, determining whether a change is chemical or physical can sometimes be a real pain! This particular change is a hard one. If your talking about butter slightly melting on a hot day because it was left out on the counter, THAT is a physical change and is reversible by simply putting the butter into the fridge. However, melting butter on the stove and having it completely turn to liquid and turn a little brown, THAT is a chemical change and is hard to reverse... a chemical change has occurred while the butter was over the heat.

Is evaporating reversible or irreversible?
Yes, this change is reversible.
Is a puddle evaporating a reversible or irreversible change?
Yes, evaporation is the changing of matter from a liquid to a gas. You can reverse this process through condensation which is the change from a gas to a liquid.
Is melting butter a chemical change?
Partly physical, partly chemical. Melted butter has different chemical properties than solid butter. The melting process, as with chocolate, is not reversible. Proteins in the butter can become denatured, and isomerization of lipids to trans fats occurs. Phase change is a common example of physical change, but chemical change also occurs in this case.
