Why is Mercury the hottest planet in the solar system?

Because it has no atmosphere and thus no greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases absorbs infrared heat emitted by an object and redistribute the energy throughout out a planet. Since there are no greenhouse gases present on Mercury, the energy absorbed by the planet can also escape the planet at a much greater rate into the vacuum that is space, thus keeping the surface temperature of the planet well below freezing
