What does Pluto look like inside?
Pluto's interior is thought to be rocky with a possible core made of metal. It likely contains a mantle of water ice and a surface covered in nitrogen ice and other frozen substances. Its exact composition is not yet known, as no spacecraft has landed on or orbited Pluto for a close-up study of its interior.
How are pressure and heat involved in melting rock in the mantle?
Pressure and heat in the mantle cause the rocks to become ductile and start deforming. As pressure decreases and heat increases due to the rising of magma, the rocks reach their melting point, allowing them to melt. This melted rock can then rise to the surface as magma and form igneous rocks.
What happens what you try to move atoms close to each other?
A chemical compound can be formed.
Is opening a box of matches a physical or chemical change?
it is physical change as you are not adding new chemicals and your are only changing the shape and it is revers able because once you open it you can close it again so it is definitely physical.
What happens if you try to move atoms very close to each other?
A chemical compound can be formed.
What are related to chemistry?
Chemistry is the study of chemical composition of materials, of chemical reactions, of the structure of molecules, of molecules synthesis, etc. Chemistry is close to physics, mineralogy, biology.
Is the mantle porous?
No. The mantle is under such great pressure that any pore space would close immediately.
Is molten rock only close to surface?
no! it can be in the mantle or the outer core
Are all caves cold?
some... but most are warm if they go to close to the mantle
Is Iceland on the mid ocean ridge?
It is on the edge not very close by the mantle plumes
What is the upper mantle of the earth made of?
The uppermost mantle is connected to the crust and forms the asthenosphere, which composes Earth's tectonic plates. The bulk of the mantle is composed of extremely hot rock under enormous pressure. The mantle may be very close to the melting point of the rock which composes it, or even partially melted. Mantle rock is higher in magnesium and iron than the crust. Rocks in the upper mantle are composed of the minerals olvine, garnet, spinel and pyroxene. With increasing depth, some of these minerals become unstable and are replaced by mineral polymorphs which have the same chemical composition, but different structures. For more information on the composition of the mantle as a whole, please see the related question.
What Layer Of The Atmosphere Is Nearest To the Earth?
layer close to the surface is the top part of the mantle
Does the grand canyon reach to the mantle?
Not even close. It goes down less than two kilometers into the continental crust, over thirty kilometers away from the upper reaches of the mantle. The bottom of the ocean is far closer to the mantle.
