No, because the solid surface of Jupiter has an outer core of liquid and solid metallic hydrogen, and is under an atmosphere of extreme density. Jupiter's moon Io, however, has liquid sulfur volcanoes that color the moon a bright yellow.

No, there is zero evidence of volcanoes on Jupiter. Jupiter does not have a solid surface like the earth, but instead possesses a very thick atmosphere that gradually transitions into a massive ocean of liquid hydrogen. Jupiter's moon, Io, however, does have volcanoes, which are active to this very day.
There are no volcanoes on Jupiter. Jupiter is made up almost entirely of gas. It does not have a solid surface.

No, although there may be upwellings in the dense lower atmosphere. There is no solid surface on Jupiter as there is on Earth or Mars.

Jupiter's moon Io, however, has liquid sulfur volcanoes that color the moon a bright yellow.

No, Jupiter is a large hodgepodge of helium and hydrogen compounds. Jupiter is beyond the frost line in the solar system. meaning hydrogen compounds can freeze into liquids and solids (much like dry ice). Jupiter has layers just like the earth. these layers are all hydrogen and helium compounds that are in a metallic liquid state. there is no solid surface in or on Jupiter anywhere. However the closest of Jupiter's moons, Io, is the most volcanic object in the solar system.

Not that we know of... Jupiter has no 'surface' as you'd think of one in planetary terms... it's possibly liquid or solid hydrogen, methane and a couple of other gasses but we don't actually know.

You may be thinking of Io; one of Jupiters moons that has reportedly 400 volcanoes on it!

no it doesn't have any volcanoes because it is a gas planet but one of its moon does.

There are several large volcanoes on Mars. The largest volcano and mountain is on the planet Mars. It is the Olympus Mons and it is over 88,000 feet tall.

No. Jupiter is a gas planet. It lacks a solid surface on which craters or volcanoes might form.

What is largest volcano on Jupiter?

To the best of our knowledge, there are no volcanoes on (or in) Jupiter. Volcanoes are characteristic of seismically active, solid planets (or moons). Jupiter consists mainly of hydrogen gas, and probably has no solid core in the form we're accustomed to.
