Mercury Venus is the hottest planet in the Solar System due to the fact that it has a very thick atmosphere containing hot and poisonous gas, which traps heat in. It is also the second planet from the sun. Mercury has no atmosphere, so it isn't as hot.

Venus and Mercury are both pretty hot; but Mercury has almost no atmosphere so the night side will cool down as there is no atmosphere to hold the heat. Venus has a thick atmosphere - essentially made of greenhouse gases, and is hot all the time.
