Explanation: Despite being farther from the sun and mercury, Venus has a much warmer temperature. Because Venus is closer to the sun than Earth is, it receives more solar energy than Earth does. Much of this radiation is reflected by Venus's clouds, but some radiation reaches the surface and is later given off as heat. The carbon dioxide in Venus's atmosphere traps heat so well that Venus has the hottest surface among the planets. This trapping of heat by the atmosphere is called the greenhouse effect. The Venus has thick atmosphere than Mercury.
I hope this helps you.
