Certainly - all matter has density. The density of a gas planet would probably be less than that of a more solid planet but it would still have a non-zero density.

What outer gas giant has the lowest density?
Saturn has the lowest density of any planet, terrestial or gas giant.
What planet's density is so low?
All the gas giants; in our Solar System, Saturn has the lowest density (less than the density of water).
What is the formula for density of a planet?
Density of a planet = (Planet's mass) divided by (Planet's volume)
Is there a relationship between planet size and weight?
Yes, but the planet's density also plays a role.Yes, but the planet's density also plays a role.Yes, but the planet's density also plays a role.Yes, but the planet's density also plays a role.
The average density of the massive Jovian planets is?
The average density of Jupiter is 1.3 (g/cm3), which is about one fourth as dense as the planet Earth. Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system and the closest gas giant to the sun.
What does the least dense planet mean?
The phrase "least dense planet" refers simply to the planet with the lowest density, which is the planet's mass divided by its volume. In our solar system, Saturn is the least dense planet with a density of roughly 0.7 (water, by comparison, has a density of 1, or 1 gram per cubic centimeter). This is attributed to its large outer envelope of gas - although it is thought to have a denser rocky core.
Is neptune a gas planet or gas planet?
a gas planet
Is Saturn a rocky planet or gas planet?
Saturn is a gas planet or gas 'giant.'
Is a planet is mostly composed of gas is it more or less dense?
A planet composed mostly of gas is less dense than a rocky planet. The gas planets of our solar system range in density from 0.69-1.6 g/cm^3. By comparison the terrestrial planets have densities of 3.9-5.5 g/cm^3
Which planet has the lowest density besides saturn?
Mercury has the second lowest density of any planet in the solar system. Saturn has the lowest density of any other planet.
What planet is the least dense of the gas giants?
Saturn is the least dense of the gas giants, even out of all of the planets in our solar system. Its average density is around 0.7 g/cc (less than water).
Is Mercury a low density planet?
Mercury is a high density planet. It has the second highest density of all the planets in the solar system.
