First: The earths core is not molten, it is a very dense solid mass, kept solid by the intense pressure on it.

Second: It is the layer around this core that is molten, and yes it does influence gravity, but more so earths magnetism.

Yes, Earth's molten core affects gravity by creating a magnetic field that interacts with the planet's rotation, which in turn affects the distribution of mass and therefore gravity on Earth's surface. However, the influence of the molten core on the overall strength of gravity is relatively small compared to other factors.

What is one result of convection currents in earths outer core?

One result of convection currents in Earth's outer core is the generation of Earth's magnetic field. As the hot, molten iron in the outer core moves in a circular motion due to convection currents, it creates a dynamo effect that generates the magnetic field.
