Yes, this is a chemical reaction in the sense that a lowering of the temperature causes fat to move from a more liquid form to a more solid form.

What is the term that describes a fat that is liquid at room temperature and does not have the maximum amount of hydrogen as possible?

The term for a fat that is liquid at room temperature and does not have the maximum amount of hydrogen is "unsaturated fat." Unsaturated fats have double bonds in their chemical structure, which prevents them from packing tightly together and solidifying.

Is fat melting a chemical reaction?

No. Changes in phase (solid to liquid, liquid to gas, etc) are physical changes, not chemical ones. If you raise the temperature of solid fat and it liquefies, that's melting so it's a physical change. Atoms do not get rearranged within the molecules of fat. But... When somebody loses weight we slangily say their fat "melted away" when in reality it undergoes a chemical reaction inside the body in order to break down and disappear.


Is soap acid?
