Is the mantle solid liquid?
It is a solid from the liquid outer core all the way to the crust
What is the layer of hot solid material between earth's crust and outer core?
There are several layers between the outer core and the crust mainly combined into one and called the Mantle.
Is the crust the only solid layer of the earth?
No, the Earth has four main layers: the crust, the mantle, the outer core, and the inner core. The crust is the outermost layer and is made up of solid rock. Beneath the crust is the mantle, which is semi-solid. The core is composed of liquid outer core and solid inner core.
What is the solid outer crust layer and the top portion of the mantle layered called?
lithosphere
What is the state of matter in the upper mantle?
solid
Is the outer mantle solid?
yes it is solid
What is the Solid outer part of the mantle?
the crust
Is the outer core solid liquid gas?
Mantle
Which part of earth's mantle is the most solid?
The most outer solid portion of the planet Earth is the crust.

What does geosphere?
Geosphere is the solid part of he earth consisting of the crust and outer mantle.
What is the difference between the mantle and outer core of the Earth?
There are differences in chemistry (the mantle is mainly ultramafic rock--the outer core is metallic), in phase (the mantle is predominately solid--the outer core is liquid), in depth (the outer core is closer to the center of the Earth), and in density (the outer core is more dense).
How is the mantle related to the outer core?
The outer core of the earth is considered to be a liquid. The mantle is considered solid rock, but could be as much as 5% molten. The outer core is mostly iron and nickel, meanwhile the mantle is mostly ultra mafic rock. The outer core is hotter and more dense than the mantle.
Define earth's mantle?
It is mainly solid and is located between the outer crust and core.
What is the solid outer crust layer and the top portion of the mantle layer called?
lithosphere
