10. The two metals located in the outer core are iron and nickel. They float because they are in a liquid state due to the high temperatures, allowing them to move and flow.
11. An earthquake is caused by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust, typically due to tectonic plates moving and slipping past each other along faults.
12. The melted rock from a volcano comes from the mantle, where intense heat and pressure cause rocks to melt into magma, which then rises to the surface through cracks and vents.
