Venus and Uranus are the two planets in our solar system that rotate from east to west, which is known as retrograde rotation. Most planets, including Earth, rotate from west to east.
Within the nine old planets, 3 of them have retrograde rotation: rotate clockwise (westward). They are Venus, Uranus and Pluto. Mercury, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune have direct rotation: rotate anti-clockwise (eastward). All the nine planets revolve around the sun eastward or anti clockwise.
Yes, some faster than others. In fact, virtually all spacial bodies rotate.
Venus and Uranus are the only planets that do not rotate counter-clockwise.
No, the sun does not rotate around all planets. In our solar system, planets orbit around the sun due to its gravitational pull. The sun itself rotates on its axis, influencing the rotation of the planets but not physically orbiting them.
All of the planets in the Universe rotate on an axis. They all do.
All planets rotate. Even earth.
Yes, all the planets in our solar system revolve and rotate.

Yes. All planets rotate about an axis.

All 8 planets in our solar system rotate around a star, our sun. Virtually all planets rotate around a star.
Within the nine old planets, 3 of them have retrograde rotation: rotate clockwise (westward). They are Venus, Uranus and Pluto.

Yes, some faster than others. In fact, virtually all spacial bodies rotate.
All the planets rotate on their axes and it would be a very unusual thing to find a planet that did not rotate.
