Actually the earth's core isn't simply 1 thing. Chemically, the Earth can be divided into the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. By comparing material strength, the layering of the earth is categorized as lithosphere, asthenosphere, upper mantle, lower mantle, outer core, and the inner core.
Scientists base their predictions mostly on the density of materials, and how materials would react on the eart's gravity, and sometimes based on seismic activity.

Is mantle made of molten metal?
No. Only the outer core is molten.
What is the diameter of Mercurys core?
The diameter od mercurys core is 3,600 km, 2,235 miles.
What is made of solid and melted rock?
the outer core. the last answer was the inner core.. but im sorry to tell them that im doing this section in school currently and the OUTER core is made of molten metal. the inner is solid metal.
What is the outer core that is made of melted iron and this metal?
The outer core is formed from molten iron and nickel.
What molten metal forms the earths core?
The question's wrong there...the inner core is made out of SOLID iron and nickel. But if you were talking about the OUTER core, it is extremely runny and gooey iron and nickel and a piece of molten crust.
Is mantle made of molten metal?
No. Only the outer core is molten.
Is earth's mantle made of molten rock or molten metal?
metal maybe iron or nickel or both
What is inner core and outter core?
a inner core is a dense ball of solid metal a outer core is a layer of molten metal surrounding the inner core
What are the 2 different layers of the core?
The inner core and the outer core. The outer core is made of molten metal and the inner core is made of solid metal.
What is the diameter of Mercurys core?
The diameter od mercurys core is 3,600 km, 2,235 miles.
Is mercurys core really hot or just hot?
The core of Mercury is very hot and not at all cold. The core is made up of iron rich ore which has an almost complete molten liquid global magentic field.
Is the inner core made of molten metal?
No. The inner core is composed of solid metal, mostly an iron-nickel alloy.
What is made of solid and melted rock?
the outer core. the last answer was the inner core.. but im sorry to tell them that im doing this section in school currently and the OUTER core is made of molten metal. the inner is solid metal.
What is the core mostly made of molten metal or solid metal?
It is widely scientifically believed that the inner core (deepest part of Earth) is made of solid iron. However the inner core is surrounded by an outer core of iron and nickel that is believed to be molten material.
The core is made up of what molten metal?
It is thought to be mostly iron.
What is the outer core that is made of melted iron and this metal?
The outer core is formed from molten iron and nickel.
Is Earth's inner core surrounded by a liquid outer core?
Yes earths inner core is a dense ball of metal earths outer core is a layer of molten (melted) metal
