Is the inner core of the Earth solid or liquid and why is it that way?
Liquid - Because temperatures are so great that the rock is melted.
Liquid - Because every layer except the crust is liquid.
Solid - Because pressure is so low that the metal can move about freely.
Solid - Because pressure so great that the metals are squeezed together and unable to move.
