Margarine is vegetable oil which has been hydrogenated.
Oil is is unsaturated which means that the hydrocarbon chain has double bonds which can be broken and hydrogen added making the molecule saturated. Double bonds cause the molecule to be kinked which means when many of these molecules are present, they can not pack as tightly together causing oil to be liquid. Once the double bonds are broken, and hydrogen takes those spots, the molecules becomes straight. When the molecules become straight they can pack together much more tightly. This results in the oil becoming solid which is why margarine is a solid.
