Why do scientists think Earth's core contains iron?
Samples of Earth's crust contain less iron than found in meteorites, and iron is a comparatively heavy element that would have sunk into the planet when it was being formed.
How much iron is in the Earth's core?
billions of trillions of billions of tonns. enuf to build a iron elivator to mars.
How much iron approximately is there on earth?
around 500 trillion tons
How much iron is in the earths crust?
Good question! I've done much research on this for my Physical Science class. But the most information I've found and that I can give you is that iron is the predominant metal/element of Earth's core. Iron (and Nickel) mainly take over the Earth's inner and outer cores. But most of the research I have done tells me the Earth is made of 5% iron. You're Welcome :D <3, Cheyenne
Why do scientists think that the earths core contains iron?
They think that because the iron in the core has sort of a magnetic force to it. It helps to rotate the earth and is a very vital part to this earth's survival. If there was no core, there is no us.

What sphere is made up of liquid iron outside and solid iron inside?
The Earth has an iron core. At the outer core it is so hot that the iron is liquid. At the inner core it is hotter still, but under so much pressure it forces the iron to solidify. Hence: the Earth's core.
Where did the ancients get their iron?
ancient cultures had to mine caves and holes to find iron like we do today. However, they did not have the tools we have today and/or the tech so it took them much, much longer to locate iron and get it out of the earth. :-)
Which is not a non-renewable resource lumber iron chicken cotton?

How much iron ore is there?
Making up 5 percent of Earth's crust, iron is the fourth most abundant rock-forming element.
