Yes, although the inner core is hotter than the outer core, there is more pressure. This pressure is enough to keep the inner core solid.
No. The inner and outer core are both composed primarily of iron and nickel, but the outer core is liquid and surrounds the inner core. The inner core is the innermost layer of Earth and is kept solid by the enormous pressure.
It isn't. The inner core is solid, the outer core is liquid.
the solid inner core and the liquid outer core
The Earth's inner core is solid metals and the outer core is liquid metals.
The outer portion of the core is mostly molten iron. The inner core is solid metal.
No. The inner and outer core are both composed primarily of iron and nickel, but the outer core is liquid and surrounds the inner core. The inner core is the innermost layer of Earth and is kept solid by the enormous pressure.
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.
This question is based on a false assumption that the outer core is solid and the inner core is liquid. This is incorrect. It is in fact the inner core that is solid (and so is the most dense) and the outer core which is liquid.
There are two parts of the core: Inner and Outer. The outer core is liquid, the inner solid. The inner core is solid due to the pressure exerted on it, despite the excessively high temperature.
The inner core is a solid, and the outer core is a liquid.
outer core is liquid whereas the inner core is solid
outer core is liquid whereas the inner core is solid
It isn't. The inner core is solid, the outer core is liquid.
The inner core Is solid and the outer core in liquid
The inner core Is solid and the outer core in liquid
Both! The outer core is in a liquid state and the inner core is a solid. Both the inner and outer core are formed mainly of iron and nickel.
