The mantle is dominantly solid. Any molten material within it is generally called "melt" (used as a noun). It could also be correctly referred to as magma, but this usage is less common.

What is the layer inside the earth that creates earths magnetosphere?
The Liquid Outer Core.
What are meanings of molten and fused states of an ionic compound?
when solid is converted to liquid by heat is called molten while solid state is called fuse state
What is the liquid rock on the surface of earth?
Liquid rock can be found on the surface as erupted lava, or in the lithosphere as it attempts to rise toward the surface (molten rock under the surface is called magma). Molten rock originates at the boundary between the lithosphere and the asthenosphere due to the introduction of cold wet oceanic crust into the upper mantle at convergent plate boundaries, or from decompression melting at hot spots and divergent plate boundaries. The asthenosphere is partially molten, but is mostly solid. The outer core is the only liquid layer of the Earth, composed mainly of liquid iron and nickel.
What liquid is below the surface of the earth?
The liquid below the surface of the earth is mostly molten rock, called magma. It is found in the mantle layer of the earth, between the crust and the core. The outer core of the earth is also a liquid, consisting mainly of molten iron and nickel.
How are lava form?
Lava is molten rock. The rock deep inside the earths mantle is always molten, and when it occasionally breaks through to the surface, the opening is called a volcano, and the liquid rock spilling out of the top is lava.

What is the molten liquid rock inside the Earth's surface?
That would be called magma.
What is the earths deeppest layer?
Its spinning, molten, liquid, iron core.
What is a soft layer of molten rock under the earths surface?
If there were such a thing it would not be soft, it would be liquid, and would be called magma. There really is no completely molten layer of Earth except for the outer core which is composed primarily of liquid iron along with some nickel and other trace elements.
What is the earths outer core?
The outer core is a liquid that is in between the inner core and mantle. It is 2,000km thick.
What is the hot liquid that lies under the earth's crust?
Molten rock..IE lava or magma
What is the liquid part of the earths called?
hydrosphere
What is molten ore?
When purified solid metal is heated under very high temperature it changes to liquid metal .This liquid metal is called molten metal .
Liquid rock is called?
Liquid or molten rock is called magma when it is below the ground and lava when it flows above the ground.
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
