billions of kilometers from the sun
the planets away from the sun are called outer planets. They are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and if you consider it a planet Pluto.
The inner planets, which are closest to the Sun, are:MercuryVenusEarthMarsThe outer planets, which are farther away from the sun are:JupiterSaturnUranusNeptune
The inner four terrestrial planets have shorter days compared to the outer four gas giants. This is because the inner planets rotate more quickly due to their smaller size and proximity to the sun, while the outer gas giants rotate more slowly because of their larger size and distance from the sun.
Yes, sort of, Pluto has been officially downgraded from a planet. The four farthest planets are now all "gas giants".
The order of the outer planets, from closet to the sun to furthest away from the sun, is Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, then Neptune.

they orbit the sun and are the first four outer planets
The four outer planets are gas giants - they are much larger than the four inner planets, and they consist mainly of gas - they don't have a surface on which you can stand.
Inner and outer planets are both part of the solar system, but they differ in composition and location. Inner planets are rocky and located closer to the sun, while outer planets are gas giants and located farther away. Both sets of planets have natural satellites, but the outer planets tend to have more moons.
The planets in the solar system can be sorted to two types: inner planets that are the four closer planets to the Sun, which are rocky and small. And outer planets which are the four other planets which are gaseous and very large.
Mercury is a rocky planet. The inner planets (first four planets from the sun) are rocky planets (which means that you could stand on them) and are the smallest. While the outer planets (last four planets from the sun) are gas planets and the biggest.

Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune (in order of distance from the sun).
Because the four inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) are the four planets closest to the sun. These smaller planets are all inside the asteroid belt. The larger planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) are outside the asteroid belt and thus called the outer planets.

Yes because the four outer planets,Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are gas planets. They are known for their gas. The outer planets (closer to the sun) have rocky surfaces. So the outer planets have gas surfaces
The four planets closest to the sun are called the inner planets. They are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. The asteroid belt lies between the inner and outer planets.
