Because it is compressed down but not hard enough for it to be solid. As well as if it were a runny liquid when the plated moved the world would be doomed.

Define volatile and viscous?
Viscous means how thick a LIQUID is and how tightly the particles are packed together if the liquid is thick(less runny) it is more viscous if the liquid is thin(more runny) it is less viscous

How do you measure the viscosity of a liquid?
you can measure it by dropping a lead ball into the liquid while timing it with a stop watch if it is runny then it is more viscous and when it is thick and not runny it is less viscous.

What is the thick rocky layer around earths core?
The core of the earth is surrounded by the mantle.The earth's core is called the inner core. Just outside that is the outer core, and it is liquid. Outside the liquid outer core is the mantle.
