What is a chunk of ice rock and dust that moves around the sun called?
A chunk of ice, rock, and dust that moves around the sun is called a comet. Comets are often characterized by their bright tails, which form when they approach the sun and the heat causes their icy components to vaporize, releasing gas and dust. They typically have elongated orbits that can take them far from the sun before returning.
What are the differences between Mercury and the moon?
Mercury is a planet and the closest to the sun in our solar system, while the moon is Earth's natural satellite. Mercury has a thin atmosphere and no moons, while the moon has a very thin atmosphere and orbits the Earth. Mercury is rocky and has extreme temperature variations, while the moon is also rocky but has no atmosphere.

What is different between sun and moon?
The sun is a giant nuclear fusion reactor and everything in the solar system orbits around it or is pulled into it by the sun's gravity and is destroyed. The sun gives off heat, light and radiation. The moon is a rock that orbits the earth.

Do other planets revolve around the sun too do they have there own orbits?
They have their own orbits, around the star they formed around, just like how our planet orbits our sun.
