Match each attribute to the appropriate planet. venus jupiter earth mercury densest planet in the solar system hottest planet in the solar system largest planet in the solar system smallest planet in the solar system

Earth is the most dense. Venus is the hottest. Jupiter is the largest. Mercury is the smallest.

Earth- Densest

Venus- Hottest

Jupiter- Largest

Mercury- Smallest

Explanation:

Earth is the densest of all the planets in the solar system which is a terrestrial planet. It has a density of about 5.5 g/cm³. It is comprised of iron, nickel and other siderophile elements in the core which has high density. The mantle and the core layer is made up of silicate materials.

Venus is the second closest planet to the sun. It is extremely hot because it is surrounded by a very thick layer of atmosphere, This atmosphere is about hundred times more massive in comparison to the earth's atmosphere. The surface of Venus receives a large amount of incoming solar radiation that are accumulated in its atmosphere, thereby increasing its temperature.

Jupiter is the largest of all the planets in the solar system. It is extremely massive and more than about 1,300 earths would easily fit inside the planet of Jupiter.

Mercury is the smallest of all the planets, whose mean radius is about 2500 km. There is absence of flat poles like the one that is present in earth, forming almost a spherical body, where its radius is almost the same at the poles as well as at the equator.
