The mantle of Neptune is rich in water, ammonia, and methane. As is customary in planetary science, this mixture is referred to as icy even though it is a hot, highly dense fluid. This fluid, which has a high electrical conductivity, is sometimes called a water-ammonia ocean. At a depth of 7,000 kilometres (4,300 mi), the conditions may be such that methane decomposes into diamond crystals that then precipitate toward the core. The Core of Neptune is composed of iron, nickel and silicates, with an interior model giving a mass about 1.2 times that of the Earth. The pressure at the centre is 7 Mbar (700 GPa), millions of times more than that on the surface of the Earth, and the temperature may be 5,400 K.
So basically, the pressure is so great at its mantle, it crushes methane into solid diamond, and the diamond sinks to the core. It's estimated that it has a solid diamond core larger than Earth.
Within our solar system, four planets are mostly made of gas - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, but all are thought to possibly have a solid core of some type.
Neptune doesn't have an outer core. The only core Neptune has is the molten inner core in the middle of the planet. Neptune is a gas giant, which means it does not have a solid surface.
Neptune is a gas giant - or to be precise an ice giant.
there are 9 planets
No they are not a rocky planet .The outer planets are called the Jovian planets, meaning huge gas giants like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
Neptune. It depends on what is being compared: core of planets OR atmosphere of planets.

It is a core which is made up of ice. It is cold

Most of the Outer Planets beyond the Astroid Belt are made of gas, except for Pluto (if you consider Pluto to still be a planet). Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are all made out of gas, but they do have particles of rock and ice surrounding them, too.

Neptune was made from an exploding nebula far off in space , in which all of the other planets , including the sun , was formed.
There are four planets that are made out of gas: Jupiter, Saturn, Urans and Neptune. These planets are called the "gas giants" . The other four planets (Earth, Mercury, Venus and Mars) are mostly made out of rock.
