Jupiter is almost always visible in the night sky, except for a month or so around the time of opposition (when Jupiter is on the other side of the Sun from the Earth). Jupiter is currently coming out of opposition, and ought to be visible in the pre-dawn sky after late March.

Yes it can be. It is constantly moving so you can't see it every night of the year, but you can see it for much of the year. Only the Sun, the Moon and Venus are brighter than it, so it can be very easy to see when it is visible. There are good websites, like Heavens-Above, which will tell you when and where to see it. It can be seen with the naked eye, but is even better in a good telescope.

around 6:00 and 8:00 December 1st.

Yes but not Venus. You will see Venus just after or slightly before sunset in the spring months- March/April. However it travels very near to the Sun, hence being an inferior planet. Also it does depend on where you live, this works for Northern countries, and best if the air pollution isn't so bad, however me living in England where the pollution is very bad, Venus was pretty bright in the sky. Jupiter can be seen as said, in December.

Jupiter is so bright that you can see it without a telescope and if you use a telescope you can see all 16 moons.

In 1 month how many day are in Jupiter?

It's not clear whether the question is talking about an earth 'month' or a Jupiter 'month'.We're going to assume that it means an earth 'month'. The 'month' is only an approximate concept,originally invented to correspond to the cycle of the moon's phases. Since Jupiter has at least63 moons (the number known as of the end of 2009), the concept of a Jupiter month doesn't makemuch sense.So we're handling the question to mean: How many times does Jupiter rotate on its axis duringone earth month ?Jupiter's rotation period is 9.9 earth hours.In 30 days, Jupiter rotates (30 x 24 / 9.9) = 72.7times (rounded)
