The "outer planets" refers to the four farthest planets from the Sun (the four largest planets, all gas giants) : Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Pluto, once considered the ninth planet, is currently classed as a dwarf planet.
Memory Aid
The mnemonic "My Very Excited Mother Just Served Us Nachos" can provide the names and order for all of the planets : "Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune".

Which planets are classified as inner planets and which are outer planets?
Very simple. We have 2 asteroid belts in our Solar System that divides the inner planets and outer planets. Very well organized and place you can tell with is the inner (closet to the sun) and which is outer (farther from the sun).
How are the inner and outer planets alike and different?
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.
