What layer of the Earth is made of solid rock and squish molten rock?
the crust is made up of solid rock and mantle is made up of molten rocks
What are tectonic made of Magma and solid mantle crust and magma crust and solid mantle solid rock and molten rock?
Igneous rock
Which layer is composed of solid rocks and hot molten rock?
mantle
Which layer of the earth produces lava and molten rock?
The mantle is the source of molten rock. This molten material can, if the tectonics are right, penetrate up through the solid outer mantle and the crust to deliver lava, which is molten rock (magma) that has reached the surface of the earth.
Which type of rock contains minerals arranged in crystals and forms when molten rock cools and turns solid?
Igneous rock.
Is the lithosphere solid or liquid rock?
The Lithosphere is solid rock floating on molten rock.
What layer of the Earth is made of solid rock and squish molten rock?
the crust is made up of solid rock and mantle is made up of molten rocks
Is molten rock more dense than solid rock?
No. Molten rock expands due to heat as the molecules get excited, therefore it is less dense than solid rock.
What is it when molten lava changes into solid rock?
Igneous Rock
Is molten rock heavy?
Yes. It is about as dense as solid rock.
What are tectonic made of Magma and solid mantle crust and magma crust and solid mantle solid rock and molten rock?
Igneous rock
Can a rocks exist in a state other than a solid?
Volcanoes spew lava. Lava is molten rock. Molten rock is liquid.
When rock heats up and becomes molten rock does it sink closer to the core?
No, molten rock is less dense than solid rock and rises through the crust.
What is the state matter of earth mantle?
solid
What is the difference between solid rock and molten rock?
Heat! One has more [molten] while the other has less [solid]. Heat is also known as Kinetic Energy: the Energy of Motion.
Which layer is composed of solid rocks and hot molten rock?
mantle
What is the deffintion igneous?
Igneous rock is formed by magma (molten rock) cooling and becoming solid.
