Q. Which is the hottest planet in the Solar System ?
Answer: Venus
Notes: Mercury is closer to the sun, but the atmosphere on Venus actually makes it hotter. Even on the night side, the temperature doesn’t drop by much (comparatively) because of the carbon dioxide, about 95%, atmosphere. The atmospheric pressure of Venus is also about 90 times greater than that of Earth.
