It is not small and rocky, it is a gas giant!
Mercury is considered the smallest rocky planet in our solar system. It has a rocky core and is closest to the Sun.
This could apply to Pluto. However, Pluto is no longer considered a planet and is more icy than rocky.
The asteroid belt is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, making it a region within our solar system rather than a planet itself. It is composed of numerous small rocky bodies, most notably asteroids, and is not considered an inner or outer planet.
The small rocky bodies between Mars and Jupiter are called asteroids. These objects are small and are made of rock or iron. Jupiter's gravity is stopping these rocks from forming a planet but even if they did form a planet, the resulting planet would only be half the size of the moon.
A small rocky planet is a terrestrial planet, like Earth, Mercury, Venus, or Mars. These planets have a solid surface composed primarily of rocks and metals, and are generally smaller in size compared to gas giants like Jupiter or Saturn.
Pluto, a dwarf planet.

Pluto because it is very small and it's surface is rocky.
Jupiter is bigger than Earth and is gaseous rather than rocky.
It is one of the four outer giants, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
Yes. The others are gas giants.

Well, the Asteroid Belt is between Mars and Jupiter and Mars is the last inner planet also the 4th planet from the Sun. Jupiter is the 1st outer planet and 5th planet closest to the Sun. So, yes the asteroid belt separates inner planets and outer planets.
A small rocky planet is a terrestrial planet, like Earth, Mercury, Venus, or Mars. These planets have a solid surface composed primarily of rocks and metals, and are generally smaller in size compared to gas giants like Jupiter or Saturn.
Saturn is not a terrestrial planet, so it is a gas planet.
