What are the atmospheres of outer planets?
its made out of jaffa cakes
Are the outer planets lighter than the inner planets?
yes
Are the outer planets made of gases?
YES
How do the inner planets differ from the outer?
The outer planets are mostly composed of gases and the inner planets are mostly made of rock, metals.
Do only the inner planets have atmospheres?
Negative, not only do the inner planets have atmospheres, but the outer planets also have atmospheres. The masses of the outer planets are great, enough easily to hold an atmosphere. In fact it's Mercury, an inner planet, that has almost no atmosphere. True, Mercury has a less mass and the closeness to the sun make it impossible to hold on a atmosphere. As matter in fact, Mars had a atmosphere, but the solar wind had almost eaten all the atmosphere that Mars had.
What is the two main gases of the atmospheres of the outer planets?
amonia, hydrogen,
Do outer planets have atmospheres?
Yes
Do inner planets have thicker atmospheres than outer planets?
no
Explain why the outer planets did not lose the light gases in their atmospheres?
In order for gas to leave a planet it needs to be hot enough and to overcome the planet's gravity. The outer planets are colder and are very massive in comparison to Earth.

Are space telescopes reveal many details of outer planets?
Yes they in fact do reveal some levels of the outer planets and their interior atmospheres.
Are the outer planets lighter than the inner planets?
yes
What has the author Thomas W Scattergood written?
Thomas W. Scattergood has written: 'Chemistry of the outer planets' -- subject(s): Atmospheres, Outer planets
What do you call the four outer planets in our solar system?
They are called the "outer planets." But also the "gas giants" because they all have thick atmospheres and no accessible surface.
Are all of the outer planets gaseous giants with thick atmospheres?
I don't think so.
Are the outer planets made of gases?
YES
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.
