Why does the dwarf planet Pluto have a lower temperature than the eight major planets?
Pluto has a lower temperature because it is further from the sun than any of the eight planets.
Why are the inner planets formed from rock and metal?
The early solar system comprised of a disk of gas which was hot near the newly formed protosun (about 2000 degrees Kelvin) and cooler at further distances. Rocky substances condensed at the higher (inner) temperatures, while icy substances condense at much lower temperatures further out (about 200 degrees Kelvin) and hydrogen and helium at lower temperatures still - just above absolute zero. So in the early stages, the inner solar system was rocky, while the planets forming in the outer regions of the solarsystem were made from (and accumulated) ice and gas. Things have pretty much remained this way since.
Why are some planets are made of gas and others made of land?

What is the main difference between the inner planets and the outer planets?
The inner planets are smaller, and do not have the dense atmospheres of the outer planets. The four inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) have warmer temperatures than the exteriors of the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune).The "gas giants" have very hot lower atmospheres, caused by the intense pressure. The atmospheres are mostly hydrogen, but for Uranus and Neptune there are higher levels of water, methane, and ammonia. All of the gas giants have multiple moons and rings, the most visible being the ice rings around Saturn.they are divided by inner and outer and the outer planet are the planets that have bigger planets.
Why is the temperature of Pluto lower than that of the planets in our solar system?
Pluto is colder than any of the planets in our solar system because it is further away from the sun than the planets are. However, Pluto is the second warmest dwarf planet, after Ceres.

What was the solar system first like?
The early solar system comprised of a disk of gas which was hot near the newly formed protosun (about 2000 degrees Kelvin) and cooler at further distances. Rocky substances condensed at the higher (inner) temperatures, while icy substances condense at much lower temperatures further out (about 200 degrees Kelvin) and hydrogen and helium at lower temperatures still - just above absolute zero. Gas collected together in the outer part of the solar system to form the four gas giant planets, while rocks collected together in the inner part of the solar system to form the four inner planets, which included the earth. Early on, there was a lot of smaller pieces of rock, and a lot of collisions, but this eventlly settled down as the planets formed.

What is energy that flows from higher temperatures to lower temperatures?
Heat.
How hot is the solar system?
On averate, very very cold. According to NASA, calculated temperatures range from a high of about +175°C at the orbit of Mercury (nearest the Sun) to a low of about −230°C (44 K) at the orbit of Pluto and lower still further out. The temperatures do rise if you enter the atmosphere of the planet but the volume of space occupied by the planets and their atmosphere is trivial compared to the near-emptiness within the solar system.
Do particles in matter move more quickly at lower temperatures or higher temperatures?
At higher temperatures.
What is the lower part has temperatures -50 upper temperatures are 0?
troposphere
