Why is the inner core a solid, even though it has a higher temperature than the
outer core, which is a liquid?

A. The inner core contains mostly silicon.

B. The inner core is under less pressure than the outer core.

C. The inner core is under more pressure than the outer core.

D. The inner core is more easily deformed than the outer core.

Respuesta :

option c is correct.

The inner core contains mostly silicon due to which the inner core remains in a solid state.

Why is the inner core a solid?

The inner core is solid because it is made of very dense, or heavy, metals which don't melt very easily or required a very high temperature so they remain in a solid state.

So we can conclude that the inner core contains mostly silicon due to which the inner core remains in a solid state.
