In our solar system, the planet with the most mass is Jupiter. So, if the planets could be arranged with their centers all at the same distance from, say, the center of the sun, then Jupiter would be the heaviest in that situation.

On what planet would you be the heaviest?

The weight depends upon the mass of the planet. A larger planet has a larger gravitational 'pull', hence Jupiter, being of a great mass objects will weigh the heaviest. To calculate your weight on other planets go to the website below, under 'Related links'.

Which is the heaviest planet?

In astronomy, heavy, heaviest etc. is never used as that is a terminology for weight. Weight is a function of an objects mass and the amount of gravity. This is why you would weight 120lb on Earth but only 20lb on the Moon. We therefore use the terminology "mass" as it does not have to take gravity into account. So the most massive planet is Jupiter have more mass than any of the other planets. [See related question]


Is Mercury the heaviest planet?

Mars is the heaviest planet. Mercury is the third heaviest. Mars has an iron core that's the same as Earths except that Mars has a greater consistent Iron layout. Mercury is made primarily of iron and has a very low gravity due to its lack of size. Mars Earth Mercury Pluto(no longer a planet by classification) Jupiter * Saturn * Neptune * Uranus * Venus * All of the * Planets are gas based planets and would float in a pool of water if you could figure out how to do such a thing.
