None is. It is a widely held misconception that Earth's mantle is molten when in fact it is kept solid under immense pressure. It has something of an elastic texture, allowing it to stretch and deform.

Actually, there are two layers of the Earth that are molten: the mantle and the outer core. Some of the inner core is molten, but most is just too hot.

The layer of the Earth that is in a molten state is the outer core. It is around 2,266 kilometers thick and is mainly composed of iron and nickel.

Which layer of the earth produces lava and molten rock?

The mantle is the source of molten rock. This molten material can, if the tectonics are right, penetrate up through the solid outer mantle and the crust to deliver lava, which is molten rock (magma) that has reached the surface of the earth.

What is the layer of the earth that is mostly rock?

There is no layer of Earth that is predominantly molten rock. The only layer of Earth that is liquid is the outer core, however this is mainly iron and nickel. The mantle, the thickest layer of the Earth, contains rock that is "ductile" (i.e. very viscous and able to flow very slowly), but not technically "liquid."


Is Earth's moon made of molten rock?

No. The molten rock which once constituted the moon was long ago solidified from cooling into igneous rock.


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 layer of molten rock that covers the outer core of the center of the earth?

I may be incorrect, but I think that the answer is the mantel.
