Describe how the chemical composition of Earth’s interior differs from its physical properties. Include specific examples.
boyakko [2]

Answer:

When you find the Earth's chemical structure, you can split the interior into <em>three layers: the crust, the mantle, and the core.</em>

  1. The crust is perhaps the lowest volume layer made up of several minerals formed from silicate.
  2. The mantle underneath the crust is the biggest layer which consists of more porous iron and silicate rock with magnesium.
  3. The core with high density is primarily metal (predominantly iron and nickel).

Through comparison, despite the Earth's physical features, how much the layers react to temperature and pressure, the Earth consists of five layers: <em>the lithosphere, the asthenosphere, the mesosphere, the outer center, and the inner centre.</em>

  1. The lithosphere is indeed the outermost layer of brittle rock which breaks when applying pressure.
  2. The asthenosphere is a porous layer; if a steady pressure is applied it flows.
  3. The mesosphere is below the asthenosphere (corresponding to the middle and lower mantle) and is solid because of the enhanced thickness tension.
  4. Underneath the mesosphere the outer core is liquid (capable of flowing), as well as the inner core is solid.
  5. The same as the mesosphere, as force is applied, the pressure on the inner core creates a hard layer which is unable to move.
