Detailed explanation-1: -Venus has a thick, toxic atmosphere filled with carbon dioxide and it’s perpetually shrouded in thick, yellowish clouds of sulfuric acid that trap heat, causing a runaway greenhouse effect. It’s the hottest planet in our solar system, even though Mercury is closer to the Sun.
Detailed explanation-2: -Venus is actually the hottest planet in the solar system. On a hot day on Mercury, the temperature can rise to over 700 ºF. That’s hot!
Detailed explanation-3: -Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system, the second planet from the sun. The atmosphere of the planet is rich in carbon dioxide and hence retains more heat energy received from the sun resulting in high temperatures. The average temperature of Venus is 900 degrees Fahrenheit.
