Earth's core is a solid made up of mainly iron and other metals. Even though temperatures
here reach sometimes 5000-7000 degree Celsius but pressure is extremely high. Due to this high pressure, the metals remain solid even though temperatures exceed their melting points.

Which part of the earths interior is thought to be a solid?
the inner core
What is the earths outter core composed of?
iron and nickel is the answer and so is the inner core. the inner and the outer and together but the outer core is liquid and the inner core is solid
Is earths core liquid or solid?
Both! The outer core is in a liquid state and the inner core is a solid. Both the inner and outer core are formed mainly of iron and nickel.
What have seismic studies discovered about earths core?
the outer core is liquid; the inner core is solid
What is the distance of the inner core?
The earth's inner core is 3160 kilometers beneath the earths surface. The inner core is a solid ball of nickel-iron alloy.
What is hotter inner mantle or outer mantle?
the earths core is the hottest part of the earth. the metals in the earths outer core is liquid because of the heat and the metals in the earths core is solid but still the earths core is the hottest
