Answer:
The inner core of the Earth is thought to be about 2,440 km across; about 70% the size of the Moon. It’s very hot, probably 3,000 to 5,000 Kelvin. Scientists once believed that the inner core was possibly a single, solid object; maybe even a single crystal of iron.

Answer:-
Seismic measurements show that the core is divided into two parts, a "solid" inner core with a radius of ≈1,220 km and a liquid outer core extending beyond it to a radius of ≈3,400 km. The densities are between 9,900 and 12,200 kg/m3 in the outer core and 12,600–13,000 kg/m3 in the inner core.
