Answers (1)
Option 1 is correct. Venus is hotter than Mercury, despite being farther from the sun. This is due to its thick atmosphere, which traps heat and creates a runaway greenhouse effect. The thick atmosphere of Venus contains carbon dioxide, which causes the planet to absorb and retain more heat from the sun. Assertion 1 and Assertion 2 both are true, and Assertion 2 explains why Venus is hotter than Mercury.
