The freezing/melting point of lauric acid is 43.2 °C
A reference can be found in 'Related links' just below this answer page.
lauric acid has a melting point of 42 degrees to 44 degrees celsius. So it should be solid at 37 degrees celsium or room temperature
Melting and freezing points are synonyms; in this case 43,2 0C.
The difference is its chemical formula, though both are saturated linear aliphatic carbonic acids:Lauric acid is dodecanoic acid: C12H24O2Stearic acid is octadecanoic acid: C18H36O2
Ascorbic acid tablets are solid a room temperature.
Citric acid is a solid.
Salicylic acid is a solid at room temperature.
Unless your room is rather on the warm side, decanoic acid would be solid; it melts at about 31 degrees Celsius.

solid
At some temperature it will be. Not at room temperature. It is a solid up to about 159 °C.
Unless your room is rather on the warm side, decanoic acid would be solid; it melts at about 31 degrees Celsius.
If your room temperature is 70 C then stearic acid would be in a liquid form as its melting point is 69.6 C. For the rest of us humans with a room temperature of around 24 C stearic acid is solid
At some temperature it will be. Not at room temperature. It is a solid up to about 159 °C.
The element, Selenium, is a solid at room temperature.
Loosely speaking, "saturated" in fats means "solid at room temperature".
At room temperature and standard pressure the element Boron is a solid.
