If the world were blown to pieces, what would remain?

My question involves the earth being blown up using theoretical dark energy.
In this scenario, the crust and mantle are destroyed by precisely placed weapons so that all that remains is the core.
Would the core freeze to become a dwarf planet comprised of solid iron after it's completely exposed? Or would the sudden lack or pressure cause the matter to become gaseous?
I also need to know about the moon. Would it continue to orbit the dwarf planet (if that is what remained) or would it begin its own orbit of the sun?
