At the center of the inner core the pressure is roughly 3,600,000 atmospheres. According to Wikipedia.

Which Earth layer has the lowest density?

The inner core has the most or highest amount of density (iron/nickel).


How much pressure does the inner core have?

Yes, because it is in the center of the Earth.


Is the inner core molten?

The inner core is solid due to pressure. With less pressure on it, the outer core is liquid.


Why isn't the inner core liquid like the outer core?

The inner core is solid because of the immense pressure from the layers above it that compresses the iron and nickel present at high temperatures. This pressure causes the inner core to solidify despite the high temperatures.


In which layer is the pressure the?

The inner core


What distinguishes Earth's inner core from its outer core?

the inner core is solid , the outer core has less pressure, so it is liquid


How Earths inner core is solid due to its?

The immense pressure from the layers outside of the inner core.


Is there less pressure on the outer core than the inner core?

NO


Is the outer core a liquid and the inner core a solid?

Yes, although the inner core is hotter than the outer core, there is more pressure. This pressure is enough to keep the inner core solid.


How is the inner core and outer core different from each other?

The outer core is liquid, the inner core is solid The outer core surrounds the inner core The outer core is iron-rich, the inner core is iron-rich and nickel-rich There is more pressure acting on the inner core The inner core is hotter


Because of intense pressure the inner core of Earth is?

Solid due to the extremely high pressure caused by the overlying layers of liquid outer core and solid mantle. This pressure prevents the inner core from melting despite its high temperature.


Is the inner core solid liquid or gas and what keeps it in this phase?

The Earth's inner core is solid, primarily composed of iron and nickel. Despite the extreme temperatures, which exceed 5,000 degrees Celsius (9,000 degrees Fahrenheit), the immense pressure at the Earth's center (over 3 million times atmospheric pressure) keeps the inner core in a solid state. This pressure prevents the iron from melting, allowing it to remain solid despite the high temperatures.
