Mercury is the smallest planet of the eight planets and is made up of rock and metal. One year on Mercury is only 88 Earth days. That's how long it takes for Mercury to orbit the sun. Mercury rotates very slowly, so its days are very long. A day on Mercury is 59 Earth days.

Planet with an atmosphere that rains sulfuric acid

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Venus

Explanation:

Venus is the second plate in the solar system. It is a terrestrial planet and it is part of the inner rocky planets.

In Venus, it rains sulfuric acid but the rain never reaches the surface before it becomes evaporated. The acid forms from the combination of sulfur oxide and water in the atmosphere at a height of about 42km. As it condenses and falls, it becomes evaporated back at lower elevations. The surface is therefore protected from the sulfuric acid rain.

The sulfur oxide and water vapor must have been derived from volcanic activities in geologic times past.
