yes it is solid
the crust
The outer mantle is part of the Earth's mantle that is closer to the surface, while the inner mantle is deeper within the Earth. The outer mantle is composed of solid rock that can flow slowly over geologic time, while the inner mantle is under higher pressure and temperature, making it more solid and rigid.
Mantle
The most outer solid portion of the planet Earth is the crust.
It is a solid from the liquid outer core all the way to the crust
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).
The solid outer crust layer of the Earth is called the lithosphere. The top portion of the mantle layer is called the asthenosphere.
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.
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.

The layer of hot solid material between the Earth's crust and outer core is called the mantle. It is composed of silicate rocks and is divided into the upper mantle and lower mantle. Heat from the Earth's core causes convection currents in the mantle, which drive the movement of tectonic plates.
The outer core is the only layer of the Earth that is in a liquid state, due to the high temperatures and pressures at that depth. The inner core is solid, while the mantle and crust are primarily solid as well, although the mantle can flow over long time scales.
