No. The outer planets are gas planets, which are much less dense than the inner terrestrial planets.

What four inner planets are larger than the outer planets?

The inner planets are smaller than the outer planets.


Are the inner planets smaller than the outer planets?

Yes, the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are smaller than the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune). The outer planets are known as gas giants and are much larger in size compared to the inner terrestrial planets.


Do denser planets have larger orbits in the solar system?

no, then inner solid planets are more dense than the outer gas planets


Why are inner planets different than outer planets?

Inner planets, such as Earth, Mars, Venus, and Mercury, are smaller, denser, and composed mainly of rocky materials. They have solid surfaces and relatively high temperatures. In contrast, outer planets, like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, are much larger, primarily made of gases and ice, and have lower densities. They also have no solid surfaces and are much colder than inner planets.


Are the inner and outer planets different?

The inner planets are all rocky planets. The outer planets are completely made up of gases. The inner planets are much smaller than the outer planets.


What is the relative size of the inner planets?

The inner planets are smaller than the outer planets. This may be because the outer planets are called gas giants. This means that gas can accumulate in size at times, and this can be one of the situations.


How do the distances between inner planets compare to the distances between the outer planets?

The distances between the inner planets is smaller than the distances between the outer planets.


How do inner planets differ?

Inner planets differ from outer planets because they have rocky core (excepting Pluto), and the are much smaller than outer planets, which are bigger and take more time to orbit Sun than inner planets because of their location. Outer planets are farther from the Sun than inner planets.


Are the planets that are closer to the sun denser?

Roughly speaking, yes: the four inner planets are quite a lot denser than the four outer planets, which are gas giants. However, note that the densest planet is Earth, which is planet #3.


Is Pluto different than the outer planets?

Yes Pluto is different than the outer planets in the following ways:Pluto has not cleared its orbit of asteroids and debrisPluto is not made of gasPluto is far smaller than any of the outer planets


Outer planets have smaller orbital periods than inner planets?

They are farther away and have larger orbital periods.


Are the outer planets and dwarf plants much bigger than the inner planets and dwarf planets?

Yes. The four inner planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars and smaller than the four outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Earth is largest inner planet, and Neptune is the smallest outer planet. Neptune is around 14 times larger in terms of diameter than the Earth. The dwarf planets are all smaller than any of the actual planets.
