If we have a planet made out of water, would it be all solid? What about the nucleus? Would it depend on the size of the planet?

Is there a planetary geologist on the flight? Maybe one would know better. Here's the thought process: Lots of pressure, maybe some form of ice (like ice-VII), oh wait...it's going to be hot, way past the triple point. I'm going super critical fluid.

Then I google the image: you decide. If it's Earth sized, go with 5000K, if it's Jupiter size, maybe 30000K - 50000K?...just because that's what I remember about aforementioned planets. The pressure sounds like a basic integral.
