The extremely high pressure at the inner core drives the melting point of the iron and other materials up beyond the temperature of the inner core. Therefore they remain solid. The pressure in the outer core is lower sop the melting point is below the temperature in this region and so it is a liquid.
What else can I help you with?
Is the core liquid or solid?
There are two parts of the core: Inner and Outer. The outer core is liquid, the inner solid. The inner core is solid due to the pressure exerted on it, despite the excessively high temperature.
What layer of Earth has a liquid and solid layer?
False. Earth's core has solid and liquid parts.
Is the inner core or the outer core solid?
In inner core is solid while the outer core is liquid. This is because the inner core, being deeper, is under more pressure.
What state of matter within the outer core?
cool stuff
Why is the inner the outer core liquid?
The inner core of the Earth is solid due to high pressure preventing melting, while the outer core is liquid because it is under less pressure. The outer core is also hotter, allowing it to remain in a liquid state.
Is the inner and outer core together solid and liquid?
Well, the outer core is made of liquid and the inner core is solid so i guess in a way it kind of is solid and liquid.
Are the inner and outer core of earth the same?
No. The inner and outer core are both composed primarily of iron and nickel, but the outer core is liquid and surrounds the inner core. The inner core is the innermost layer of Earth and is kept solid by the enormous pressure.
Is the core liquid or solid?
There are two parts of the core: Inner and Outer. The outer core is liquid, the inner solid. The inner core is solid due to the pressure exerted on it, despite the excessively high temperature.
Is the solid outer core more dense than the liquid inner core?
This question is based on a false assumption that the outer core is solid and the inner core is liquid. This is incorrect. It is in fact the inner core that is solid (and so is the most dense) and the outer core which is liquid.
How did the outer core become solid?
It isn't. The inner core is solid, the outer core is liquid.
What are the two parts of the inner core?
the solid inner core and the liquid outer core
How does the outer core differ from inner core?
outer core is liquid whereas the inner core is solid
What is the difference between the inner cores and outer cores?
The inner core is a solid, and the outer core is a liquid.
How does outer core different from inner core?
outer core is liquid whereas the inner core is solid
What is the differences between the inner core and the outer core?
The inner core is a solid, and the outer core is a liquid.
Is the earth's 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.
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.
