Itâs clear that in order to have the current balance of elements that Earth has further up, the core must be 85 percent iron and 10 percent nickel. That has meant that 5 percent of it has remained up for grabs, so to speak, to anyone who can come up with a convincing enough theory.
The core (C), beneath the mantle (B), is the deepest and hottest layer of the Earth. It is made almost entirely of metal. The core is made of two layers: the outer core, which borders the mantle, and the inner core. The inner core is shaped like a ball. Iron and nickel in the outer core form an alloy, or a mixture of metallic elements. The outer core is approximately 2,300 kilometers thick and very hot, between 4,000 and 5,000 degrees Celsius. The inner core is made mostly of iron. It is about 1,200 kilometers thick.
