What is the difference in composition between bodies found in the inner Solar System and bodies found in the outer solar system?

Bodies in the inner Solar System, like Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, are predominantly made of rock and metals. In contrast, bodies in the outer Solar System, like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, are primarily composed of gases and ices, such as hydrogen, helium, water, and ammonia. Additionally, outer Solar System bodies are much larger and more massive compared to inner Solar System bodies.
