Want this question answered?
The earth's inner core is solid composed of nickel iron alloy. It is solid despite the very high temperature because of the very high pressure.
Liquid to solid is a phase change.
The inner core is solid
Metals can be solid or liquid. Through Melting Phase Transition, the solid metal will change its state from solid to liquid. Through Freezing Phase Transition, the liquid metal will change its state from liquid to solid.
Solids are the only phase of matter which have a fixed shape and volume.
The earth's inner core is solid composed of nickel iron alloy. It is solid despite the very high temperature because of the very high pressure.
The melting phase changes are Solid~Liquid~Gas and the freezing phase changes are Gas~Liquid~Solid
Liquid to solid is a phase change.
The liquid to gas phase change is vaporizing; the reverse is condensing. The other phase changes are: - solid to liquid: melting - liquid to solid: freezing - solid to gas: sublimation - gas to solid: deposition
Phase changes requiring the addition of heat energy are the phase changes from solid to liquid, liquid to gas, and solid to gas. These phase changes are termed melting (solid to liquid), evaporation (liquid to gas), and sublimation (solid to gas).
The phase change from a solid to a liquid is called "melting."
The inner core is solid.
The inner core is solid
Well, the outer core is made of liquid and the inner core is solid so i guess in a way it kind of is solid and liquid.
The melting phase changes are Solid~Liquid~Gas and the freezing phase changes are Gas~Liquid~Solid
Solid to liquid.
The inner core is an alloy of iron and nickel, and the outer core is mainly liquid iron and nickel.The liquid layer made up of hot liquid iron and nickel that surrounds the inner core.
