Why do Jovian planets have more volotile liquid and gaseous material then terrestial planets?

What criteria are the planet placed into either the jovian or terrestial groups?
Planets are placed into either the Jovian or terrestrial group based on their composition, size, and distance from the sun. Jovian planets are gas giants, much larger in size and primarily composed of hydrogen and helium. Terrestrial planets, like Earth, are smaller, rocky planets with solid surfaces.
Which planet has the highest surface gravity of the terrestial planets?
Earth
Does earth belong in the terrestial planets?
Yes. The word "terrestrial" means "like the Earth".
Compared to the size of the earth the Jovian planets are?
Compared to the size of Earth, the Jovian planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) are much larger in size. They are called "Jovian" because they are similar in size and composition to Jupiter. Jovian planets are primarily composed of hydrogen and helium gases and have thick atmospheres, making them significantly bigger than Earth.
Why are jovian planets so cold?
Jovian planets are cold because they are located much farther from the sun than terrestrial planets like Earth. Since they receive less sunlight and heat, they have lower average temperatures. Additionally, the atmospheres of Jovian planets are primarily composed of cold gases like hydrogen and helium, which contribute to their overall cold temperatures.
What are two differences between Jovian planets and Terrestial planets?
The gas giants ("Jovian planets") are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. Unlike the terrestrial planets, these planets:Are quite a bit largerConsist mainly of gasDon't have a surface on which you might standContain more hydrogen and helium, and less of the heavier elementsHave a lower density
Why are the inner planets called terrestial planets?
Because they are roughly like the Earth.
What jovian planet is closest to the sun?
Jupiter is the Jovian planet that is closest to the sun...
How many days are in a jovian year?
A Jovian year is the time it takes for Jupiter to complete one orbit around the Sun, which is about 4,333 Earth days or approximately 11.9 Earth years.
Is Jupiter a terrestrial or a Jovian planet?
Jupiter is a Jovian Plant. The adjective Jovian has come to mean anything associated with Jupiter; and by extension, a Jupiter-like planet. The Jovian planets are the gas giants: Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune. Many, if not most, of the exoplanets discovered to date appear to be Jovian. By contrast, terrestrial, aka telluric, aka rocky planets differ significantly from the gas giant/Jovian planets in that they are composed primarily of metals and silicate rocks (hence "rocky" planets) like Earth, aka Terra (from which we get the word terrestrial) and are "Earth-like" as opposed to "jupiter-like"/Jovian. The terrestrial planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. All the dwarf planets are also more terrestrial than jovian.
Is earth largest terrestrial planet?
No, There Are Many Terrestial Planets Bigger Than Earth, Please Go On Wikipedia For More Information.
