It is estimated to be between 10.0-12.3 g/cm3.

The pressure at the interface between the Earth's mantle and the outer core is estimated to be around 1.3 million times atmospheric pressure, or approximately 130 gigapascals (GPa). This extreme pressure results from the weight of the overlying mantle material and the intense conditions found at such depths. This region, known as the core-mantle boundary, plays a crucial role in the dynamics of Earth's geophysical processes.
The distance from the outer core to the mantle is approximately 2,900 kilometers. The outer core is a layer beneath the Earth's mantle, composed mainly of iron and nickel, while the mantle is the layer located between the crust and the outer core.
Between the thin rocky crust and inner core, in order from upper to lower, are the upper mantle, mantle, and outer core.

The outer core.
There are differences in chemistry (the mantle is mainly ultramafic rock--the outer core is metallic), in phase (the mantle is predominately solid--the outer core is liquid), in depth (the outer core is closer to the center of the Earth), and in density (the outer core is more dense).
The D'' area of the mantle extends from 2798 km to 2900 km, which is the boundary between the mantle and the liquid outer core. At this level, the pressures are enormous, roughly equal to 1.4 million units of atmospheric pressure.
Between the outer core and the crust.
the outer core :)
The central part of Earth below the mantle is the core. The core is divided into the outer core, made of liquid iron and nickel, and the inner core, which is solid due to high pressure despite being made of the same materials.
Between the thin rocky crust and inner core, in order from upper to lower, are the upper mantle, mantle, and outer core.
Between the inner core and lowwer mantle.
Gutenburg Discontinuity
The boundary between the mantle and core is called the core-mantle boundary. This region is marked by a significant change in density and composition, representing the transition from the solid mantle to the liquid outer core of the Earth.
