Where did planets made of mostly gas and ice form protoplanetary disk?
Far enough from the new Sun that they did not "evaporate". In other words, towards the outer rim of the main part of the disk.
What is it called when planets are formed?
Accretion because usually they form from a protoplanetary accretion disk.
Are planets formed from the same clouds of gas and dust as stars?
Yes. As a new star is forming it is surrounded by a disk of gas and dust called a protoplanetary disk. Planets, asteroids, and comets all form from this disk.
Where did most of the material end up from the protoplanetary disk that formed our solar system?
In our Sun. Its mass is almost 300 times greater than the total mass of all of its planets.
Why are moons natural satellites to planets?
Satellites are objects placed in orbit by human enterprise. Moons are natural satellites because they orbit planets or other smaller celestial bodies, but are formed in some way out side our control. IE: collisions, captured dwarf planets, or created out of the same Protoplanetary Disk as it's primary.
How the rocky inner planets were formed?
By "accretion" of "planetesimals" from the "protoplanetary disk".
How do temperature differences in the protoplanetary disk the arrangement of the planets?

How did Uranus form?
As best we know, the same way all the other planets did: accretion of objects in a protoplanetary disk.
How did Jupiter become the biggest planet?
Jupiter is the biggest simply because it got the most stuff out of the "protoplanetary" disk from which the planets formed.
What is a proplyd?
it is exactly protoplanetary disk.
What is a protoplanetary disk?
A disk of gas ad dust that forms round a proto-star as the star coalesces at the center and from which planets accurate. The related links below give more information.
What will the protoplanetary disks eventually become?
That depends what the disk is forming round. If it is a large black hole it will form a quasar, if it is round a star, it will form planets (a solar system).

How do temperature differences in the protoplanetary disk explain the arrangement of the planets in the solar system?
The protostellar disk is very hot and only rocks and metal can combine together in that heat, so that makes the inner planets. In the outer disk it is very cold, so there are only ice and dust particles able to combine together, there are though rock centers in the outer planets but ice and gas make up the majority: that makes the outer planets.
