I have a very interesting question about the solar system. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

After the Sun collapses to a white dwarf, how will conditions on Earth compare with those on Venus at that time? Assume that the Sun gets hot enough to destroy all atmosphere and water on both planets before it dies.

Thanks again for any help!!!
Beth
