Density Before talking about the layers of the earth it is important to understand density. Before talking about the layers of the earth it is important to understand density.

Density Density = Mass/Volume Density = Mass/Volume Coke/diet coke demoCoke/diet coke demo Both cans have the same volume. Both cans have the same volume. Why did the coke sink and the diet float? Why did the coke sink and the diet float? Coke has more sugar, therefore more mass per volume.Coke has more sugar, therefore more mass per volume.

There are 2 different models to show the layers of the Earth. The_Inner_Structure_of_the_Earth.mov The_Inner_Structure_of_the_Earth.mov 1) Composition -It is based on the compounds of the Earth. In other words, what they are made of. 2) Physical Structure - It is based on the physical properties. In other - It is based on the physical properties. In other words, what it is like. words, what it is like.

Most models crust mantle outer core inner core Most models of the layers of the Earth divide the core layer into its physical layers. -Outer core – which is in a liquid state. -Inner core – which is in a solid state.
