the outer planets are gaseous and the inner planets are not
An atmosphere is a layer of gas that surrounds a planet; this gas is attracted by gravity and is greater in volume depending on the strength of the gravitational field and the temperature of the atmosphere. The inner planets generally have less mass, resulting in a less strong gravitational field, and a warmer atmosphere meaning the atmosphere is thinner than the colder, larger outer planets.
The outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) are larger and mostly composed of gas, while the inner planets are smaller and rocky. The outer planets are also much colder, have more moons, and are located farther from the Sun compared to the inner planets. Additionally, the outer planets have ring systems, while the inner planets do not.
The inner planets, also called terrestrial planets, are closer to the Sun and have solid surfaces, while the outer planets, known as gas giants, are farther from the Sun and composed mostly of gas. Inner planets are smaller and have higher densities, while outer planets are much larger and have lower densities. Additionally, inner planets have few or no moons, while outer planets have numerous moons.
The inner planets are rocky, with distinct solid surfaces, and dense, whereas the outer planets are gaseous, have no solid surface and are relatively light in comparison. The density of Saturn, for example, is less than that of water.
outer planets are gas giants whille inner planets are just rocky planets. that includes that outer planets have significant amount of mass than the inner planets
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.
The inner planets are hotter because they are the closest to the sun the outer planets are the coldest because they are the farthest planets from the sun
The inner planets are small and rocky, the outer planets are much larger and have no solid surface, they are called the gas giants.
inner=terrestrial outer=non terrestrial
the inner planets are closest to the sun and the outer planets are farthest from the sun { Answered by a grade 4 student}
A basic, simplified answer is: The inner planets are mainly rock with iron cores. The outer planets are mostly gas, or liquefied gases.

The inner planets are like big rocks. The outer planets are like big balls of gas.

They are all bigger
smaller
The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The outer planets (they are separated by the asteroid belt) are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The outer planets are different than the inner planets because the outer planets are not solid. They are all made up of gas. However, the inner planets are rocky and hard.
