∙ 7y agoIn actuality, although Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun, Venus (twice as far from Sun) actually has the hottest surface temperature.
The reason is that the surface temperature of Mercury is regulated solely by the Sun (Mercury has no atmosphere) at approximately 430oC ( 806oF) at high point. Due to the Greenhouse Effect on Venus (having an atmosphere made up of various elements), the surface temperature is regulated by the Sun and trapped infrared energy it receives from the Sun, which cannot escape back into space (like it does on Mercury). The result is a surface temperature on Venus that is hotter than on Mercury at approximately 472oC ( 882oF).

∙ 7y agoAlthough Mercury is the closest planet to the sun, it is only the second hottest planet after Venus. Venus gets hotter as the thick carbon Dioxide atmosphere holds the heat more effectively, while Mercury has no atmosphere. Surface temperatures on Venus average 735 Kelvin or 460 °C.
Venus has the highest surface temperature. Although Mercury is closer, Venus holds the suns heat in much more efficiently with its thick Carbon Dioxide atmosphere.

Is Venus the hottest planet in the solar system?
Venus has the highest surface temperature of the 4 terrestrial planets. The gas giants have hotter interiors, but they do not have the same differentiation of surface/atmosphere that the smaller planets do. Venus has the hottest Earth-like location that human technology can currently access, and is especially interesting because of the planet's similarities to Earth in composition and size.
