Yes, sort of, Pluto has been officially downgraded from a planet. The four farthest planets are now all "gas giants".
The inner planets are closer to the Sun than the outer planets, so they receive more direct sunlight and heat. Additionally, the inner planets have solid surfaces that can absorb and retain heat, while the outer planets are mostly composed of gas and have no solid surface to absorb heat. This combination of factors leads to higher temperatures on the inner planets compared to the outer planets.
They number 4 in line, Jupiter, number 5, is the 1st of the Outer Planets and Gas Giants. ----------------------------------- The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars; the outer planets are further away than these. ----------------------------------- Being close enough to the Sun that solar radiation has largely stripped it of volatiles. The outer planets have retained most of their volatiles because they are further away from the Sun.
their all gas planets
The four outer planets are all significantly larger than the four inner planets. Beyond that there's no simple relationship. The size of the planets (from smallest, 1, to largest, 8) in order of distance from the Sun: 1, 3, 4, 2, 8, 7 ... and then it gets vague. If you go by radius, the last two are 6, 5 and if you go by mass they're 5, 6 (either way, they're nearly twins).
In about 5 billion years, the Sun will exhaust its fuel and expand into a red giant, consuming the inner planets in the process. Eventually, it will shed its outer layers and form a planetary nebula, leaving behind a white dwarf star.
1-Outer Planets are much colder then inner planets. 2-They are all Gas Giants (they are incredibly huge). 3-ALL outer planets have rings (Pluto is a dwarf planet.And is alot farther away then Neptune) 4-There gravity is ALOT stronger then the inner planets. 5-Outer planets have shorter days then inner planets (i don't know why though).

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
their all gas planets
There are only 4 "outer planets". They are Jupiter Saturn Uranus and Neptune. There are 5 planets outside the Earth's orbit. They are the above 4 plus Mars. These 5 are called the "superior planets".
from the Sun our planets in order are: 1. Mercury 2. Venus 3. Earth 4. Mars 5. Jupiter 6. Saturn 7. Uranus 8. Neptune 9. Pluto - if you still consider it as a planet So Earth and Jupiter are Mars' closest neighbors
Jupiter would be.....5 planets from the sun. =]
The outer (major) planets of our solar system are the 4 gas giants:JupiterSaturnUranusNeptuneFurthermore, 4 out of the 5 dwarf planets are also in the outer solar system, beyond the orbit of neptune:PlutoHaumeaMakemakeEris
There are 4 outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Pluto was formerly grouped with these but is no longer considered a planet.
