Yes, there is. Europa is tidally locked with Jupiter, which means that the same side is always facing it. This means that a day on Europa is the same as the time it takes for it to complete one orbit around Jupiter - 3 days 13 hours 13.7 minutes.
To help visualize this, get a small ball, and move it around some other object. Make sure the same side of the ball always faces that object. As you move the ball around the object, imagine your head is the sun. As the ball moves around the object, you will have seen all sides of the ball by the time it completes one orbit around the object.
