The outer core of the earth, composed primarily of iron and nickel, remains liquid because pressure at those respective depths is not sufficient to prevent a phase change from solid to liquid. The inner core remains solid because pressure at those depths prevents any expansion in volume, which is necessary for a substance to be in a liquid state.
