The inner planets are smaller and rockier than the outer planets which are made mostly of gases. Plus they are on different sides of the asteroid belt.
with the exception of Pluto Classed as "Dwarf Planet" the inner 4 planets Mercury, Venus , Earth and Mars are all solid planets (rocky) The planets after that are all Gaseous planets
they are all small rocky planets [earth,mercury,venus,mars]
The four inner, rocky planets are also known as the terrestrial planets. These are; Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. These have much smaller diameters than the outer gas giant planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) The inner planets have higher densities than the outer planets, despite being smaller and much lower in mass. The inner planets have a clearly defined surface. The inner planets are warmer and are much closer to the sun. The closer to the sun the planet is, the shorter its orbit period.
The inner terrestrial planets, including Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, are unique in several ways. They are closer to the Sun and have shorter orbital periods compared to the outer planets. They also have solid, rocky surfaces and higher densities. Additionally, the inner terrestrial planets have thinner atmospheres, with Mars having a very thin and mostly carbon dioxide atmosphere, while Earth has a thick atmosphere that supports life.
They can be classed as terrestrial planets or gas giants, or inner and outer.

The four inner planets are made of rock . The outer planets are made of various gases and condenced gases. Hydrogen being prominante.
The four inner, rocky planets are also known as the terrestrial planets. These are; Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The inner planets all have a clear solid surface, unlike gaseous planets. The inner planets do not have a ring system. The inner planets are of similar densities.
#1 The Inner Planets are rocky, with a thin atmosphere. The Outer Planets are Gas Giants. #2 The Inner Planets are closer together, and nearer the Sun. The Outer Planets are much further apart and further from the Sun. #3 The Inner Planets orbit the Sun much more quickly; 2 years at a maximum. The Outer Planets orbit the Sun much more slowly; 11 years at a minimum. #4 With the exception of Earth and Mars, the Inner Planets do not have natural satellites. The Outer Planets have multiple satellites. #5 The Inner Planets do NOT have 'rings'. The Outer planets, notably Saturn have concentric rings. #6 The Inner Planets are separated from the Outer Planets by the Asteroid belt.

The inner planets, otherwise known as the terrestrial planets all are: -rocky/more dense (unlike the gaseous outer planets) -closest to the sun -smallest planets
they are all small rocky planets [earth,mercury,venus,mars]
The gas giants and the terrestrial planets initially formed in similar ways, however, the powerful solar wind of the young sun stripped away the first atmospheres of the inner planets. The outer planets were less affected by this and so retained their thick atmospheres of hydrogen and helium. Today, the outer planets recieve much less heat from the sun than do the inner planets, allowing various ices to form.
The inner plants are different from the outer planets from many ways...here is the list of different ways they are different.Inner planets:1. Terrestrial2. Rocky surface3.Cores made out of ironThe four inner planets are Mars, Venus, Earth, and Mercury.Outer planets:1.Gas giants2.Surface is made up of a slush that forms from their gaseous atmosphere3.Surface are not solid but cores areThe four outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
The outer planets lie beyond the asteroid belt.
