Much less than that of Earth. For example, Saturn's density is less than that of water; Jupiter's density is slightly larger than that of water.
The terrestrial planets are primarily composed of rock and the jovian planets are mostly gas (primarily Hydrogen). Rock has a higher density than Hydrogen, giving the terrestrial planets a higher density.
Although a lot more massive, the four outer gas giant planets are less dense than the inner rocky planets. The densities of the four inner planets are between 3.94 g/cm3 to 5.515 g/cm3, ehile the outer gas planet densities range from 0.7 g/cm3 to 1.76 g/cm3.
Yes. The Terrestrial Planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars) are primarily composed of rock, whereas the Jovian Planets (or Gas Giants) (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) are composed of gases, and thus their densities are significantly less. For example The Earth has a mean density of approximately 5.5g cm3 whereas Saturn has a mean density of 0.687g cm3 which is less than water. If you could find a bath large enough and enough water, Saturn would actually float.
Jovian planets are: -gaseous -farthest planets from the sun -largest planets
The Terrestrial planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. The Jovian planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
Yes
they are larger than earth and have low densities.
The terrestrial planets are primarily composed of rock and the jovian planets are mostly gas (primarily Hydrogen). Rock has a higher density than Hydrogen, giving the terrestrial planets a higher density.
The four Jovian planets in our solar system are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The four terrestrial planets are Earth, Venus, Mars and Mercury. The difference between the Jovian planets and the terrestrial planets is that Jovian planets are enormous and made of gasses and ices while terrestrial planets are relatively small and made of rocks and metals. Other differences are that terrestrial planets have high densities, rotate slowly, have no moons or magnetic fields and have thin atmospheres (Earth is an exception because it has a moon and a magnetic field), while Jovian planets have low densities, rotate rapidly, have many moons and a magnetic field and have thick atmospheres.

Jovian Planets do not have a solid surface to stand on.

No. The Jovian planets are much more massive than the terrestrial planets.
