Earths position in the atmosphere?
Earth's atmosphere is the layer of gases that surrounds the planet. It consists of different layers, with the troposphere being the closest to the surface where weather occurs. Earth's position within the atmosphere allows it to support life by providing the necessary elements for living organisms to thrive.
Why isent mercury the hotest planet?
Mercury, even though the closest planet to the sun, isn't the hottest planet because of the thing it lacks and that most planets have, an atmosphere. Venus is the hottest planet, the reason?... Venus's atmosphere. What makes its atmosphere special? It is 92 times as dense as Earths atmosphere and consists of 98% carbon dioxide. These properties make Venus's atmosphere like a magnifying glass that has the same diameter as the sun and the magnification power of an electron microscope, and a heat blanket that is so ridiculous that there isn't even a simile for it.
Which planet is most like Earth in diameter and mass?
Venus is closest to the Earths size and mass - often referred to as Earths sister or twin planet. Venus' Mass is around 82% of Earths, while its diameter is a little smaller than Earths at around 95% of Earths.
Is the planet closet to the sun the hottest?
No. For example Venus is the second closest planet but is the hottest. This is because it has a thick atmosphere and therefore it holds the heat in more than mercury (the closest planet) does.
Which planet has the hottest surface temperature and is about as big as the earth?
Venus. It is sometimes called Earths twin planet due to it being a similar size and composition. It is also the planet that comes closest to ours. Although Mercury is the closest planet to the sun, it is only the second hottest planet after Venus. Venus gets hotter as the thick carbon Dioxide atmosphere holds the heat more effectively, while Mercury has no atmosphere.
