Explain what chemical convection is and where it may be occurring within Earth
What will be an ideal response?
Chemical convection is motion of material that is caused by density differences due to different chemical compositions. At the surface of the inner core, solid iron is crystallizing from the liquid outer core, resulting in a lower-density, iron-depleted liquid that will rise up to start the convection cycle.
