If you're asking how much of the earth is in the crust layer, less than one percent. If you're asking what it's composition is:SiO2:60.6Al2O3:15.9CaO:6.4MgO:4.7Na2O:3.1Fe as FeO:6.7K2O:1.8TiO2:0.7P2O5:0.1
With a very sizable iron core and a (by comparison) wafer-thin crust, I doubt that the earth's crust even approximates a full percentage point.
When mass is added to Earth's crust, it causes the crust to subside and sink due to the increased weight. Conversely, when mass is removed from the crust, it can rebound and rise due to the decreased load. This process is known as isostatic adjustment and can result in changes in the Earth's topography.
Oxygen is the most abundant element in the Earth's crust, making up about 46.6% of its mass.
The Mantle takes up 84% of the Earth's mass.

No. The crust contains a small fraction of earth's mass. Most of the mass is contained in the mantle.
its the percentage in mass !
mass of Earth = 5.97219 × 1024 kilograms. Roughly.The mass of the earth is not represented by the earths crust
About 2%
30%
the answer is athenosphere because it has less percent and since mantle has the most then athenosphere should have the 67% of the earths mass
The Earth's mantle takes up about 67% of Earth's mass and consists mainly of silicon, oxygen, and magnesium. The mantle is a layer of solid rock and is situated between the Earth's crust and core. It plays a crucial role in the movement of tectonic plates and heat transfer within the planet.
The second most abundant element in the Earth's crust is silicon, comprising 27.8% of the crust by mass.
