Which layer of solid due of tremendous pressure?

I believe you are thinking of the inner core of the Earth, which, although it is at a temperature hot enough to melt the rock that it is made of, it is kept solid by the pressure it is under.


What atmospheric layer that protects the earth from meteoric impact?

The complete atmosphere protects us from that. It is due to the tremendous pressure that they get destroyed.

Do the plates that make up the crust float on molten rock of the mantle?

Technically, no. They float on top of the asthenosphere, a layer of the upper mantle which is solid, but plastic in nature due to intense heat and pressure.


How can I prevent a solid layer surface forming on hot chocolate?

A solid layer forming is due to oxidation of the surface. This cooling effect is due to the surface being exposed. To prevent this, you would need to get rid of all of the air and put a layer of plastic wrap over the surface without any air under the plastic.


Why is the inner corre solid the outer core liquid?

The inner core is solid due to the high pressure. Even at such a temperature, the pressure is so great that the material can only exist as a solid. The outer core is liquid as it is at a huge temperature, yet does not have the pressure to force it into solid form.


Why is the inner core solid despite of high temperatures?

Due to extre,e pressure!!


What layer of earth exceeds6000 degrees celsius?

The inner core of the Earth exceeds 6000 degrees Celsius. It is the deepest layer, located at the center of the Earth, and consists primarily of solid iron and nickel. The extreme heat in this region is due to the immense pressure generated by the weight of the layers above it.


Why is the inner core of the earth solid?

It is solid because there is so much pressure that it makes it really dense.
