The inner planets, Mercury and Venus, are too small and too far away to block more than a tiny part of the Sun (less than 1%). So even when they are aligned with the Sun (which is veryrarely), they are practically invisible to the naked eye.
Transit of Venus 2012
Both Mercury and Venus make "transits" across the Sun, as seen from the Earth, at very long intervals. Mercury's transits are nearly invisible because of the distance from Earth, but happen about 13 or 14 times every 100 years. The next will occur in 2016. Venus is closer to the Earth and makes a shadow about 1/30th of the Sun's diameter. But because of the inclinations of the planets' orbits, transits of Venus only occur every 105 or 121 years, as pairs of transits 8 years apart. The transit following 2004 will be on June 6, 2012 and it will not occur again until the years 2117 and 2125. In 2012, the best visibility will be in the mid-Pacific and in Australia.
As viewed from an outer planet, eclipses by inner planets are very rare. The transit of Jupiter as seen from Saturn would be the most noticeable, about the same as Venus from Earth. But the transits can be more than 2400 Earth years apart.
No, a solar eclipse cannot cause an earthquake.
The moons of the big planets can go into eclipse when they are in the shadow of their planet.
the sun and Pluto
During a solar eclipse, the alignment is the Sun, Moon, and Earth, with the Moon positioned between the Earth and the Sun. As the eclipse progresses outward toward the edge of the solar system, the alignment remains the same, with the Sun at the center and the Moon moving away from the inner planets towards the outer planets.

a solar eclipse
The entire area becomes completely dark as a normal solar eclipse woulddo to a certain area.
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the sun and the earth, blocking the sun's light. An eclipse is a broader term that refers to the blocking of light from a celestial body by another, so it can refer to both solar eclipses and lunar eclipses.
Uranus and Venus do not experience lunar or solar eclipses. Due to their unique orbital characteristics and the angles of their orbits relative to the Sun, conditions for eclipses are not possible on these planets.
the two planets are venus and mars because the have no moons .
