It depends but in most cases you would weigh more on a gas planet. While the gas planets have a far greater mass than the terrestrial planets, they also have much larger radii. The strength of the surface gravity of a planet is directly proportional to its mass and inversely proportional to the square of its radius. Three of the four gas planets in the solar system have stronger surface gravity than any of the terrestrial planets. Uranus is the exception. Uranus is about 4 times the radius of Earth and 14.5 times Earth's mass, which gives Uranus a surface gravity 88.6% that of Earth. So you would weigh less on the gas planet Uranus than you would on Earth or Venus, which are terrestrial planets.
The gassy planets are much more massive than the inner planets, which means that have stronger more far-reaching gravitational fields. That in turn makes them more likely to capture odd collections of rock in the solar system.
Bigger planets are more likely to be gas giants while smaller ones are more likely to be terrestrial. This of course is not the answer to your question which is, of all planets that may exist, is there a greater likelyhood of there being terrestrial planets or gas giants?
Oh no, it is the outer planets which have the most moons. Terrestrial planets such as Earth have relatively few moons.
Gas planets are just that - gaseous. This means they are less dense, and more susceptible to centripetal forces. Gas planets also have a tendency to have a faster rotation speed due in part to their large mass. The result is slightly oblate spheroids.
Based on the fact that the gaseous planets in the solar system have much greater mass than terrestrial planets, you would weigh more as weight depends on gravitational pull, which is increased based on the mass of the object.
the terrestrial planets are made of iron cores and the gaseous planets are bigger and are made up of many gases that come together so if u could stand on one of these planets u would sink in goo the gaseous planets also have more gravity

Gaseous planets are often significantly more massive than terrestrial planets. They are not primarily composed of solid rock, as terrestrial planets are, and instead consist of particles of water, hydrogen, and helium. Gaseous planets also lack a atmosphere, as the gas merely thins farther away from the gravitational hold of the center. Alternatively, one could say that gas giants are almost entirely composed of an atmosphere for a dense, small, or sometimes almost nonexistent core.

No, there is more hydrogen on the Jovian planets then the terrestrial ones.
No. The Jovian planets are much more massive than the terrestrial planets.
The terrestrial planets in our solar system are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. There are many more terrestrial planets orbiting stars other than the sun.

gas planets
Jovian planets are more massive and lower in average density. Terrestrial planets are smaller and higher in average density.
