The early solar system comprised of a disk of gas which was hot near the newly formed sun (about 2000 degrees Kelvin) and cooler at further distances from the sun.
Rocky substances condensed at the higher (inner) temperatures, while icy substances condense at much lower temperatures further out (about 200 degrees Kelvin) and hydrogen and helium at lower temperatures still.
So in the early stages of the solar system formation, the inner solar system was rocky, while the planets forming in the outer regions of the solar system were made from ice and gas. Things have pretty much remained this way since.

How much mass do Planets have?
It depends on the planet. Some planets, like Jupiter, are made from gas. While others, like Earth, are rocky planets.
Why do have some planets rings and what are they made of?
Small planets don't have rings because they are land planets and are made out of rocks. Smaller land planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and dwarf planet, Pluto , Eris. Bigger planets have rings due to their gas. Bigger plants like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are made out of different gas particles. You can never land in these planets. So this is the reason why bigger planets have rings.
Why is why is there gravity on some planets but not on others?
There is gravity on all planets. The strength of that gravity varies depending on the size and mass of each planet.
Which planet don't have mass?
All planets have mass, but some have more than others.
Do planets have Ozone?
Earth has an ozone layer in atmosphere. It is present in the stratospheric region. Other planets which have oxygen in their environment might have ozone.Some planets like earth do. Others might have.
Why are some planets bigger than other?
because when god made the planets he made explosions everywhere to make planets. some explosions were bigger than others.

Are planets mostly made out of gas?
Some are (the gas giants), but the others, like Earth, are not.
Why do some planets take longer to orbit the sun than others?
because some planets are closer to the sun than others and there are various other reasons and some may not be true
How the planets are alike and different?
Some plants are suitable for life. Others aren't. Some planets are made of gas. Others are solid Some have an atmosphere Some don't Some have water Some don't Some are hot, scorching deserts Others are icy and wet ...you get the idea :)

Are all the planets made out of rock?
No, some are made out of gas.
What is the difference and similarities in the planets?
Some are colder than others and some have rings around them
Are planets made out of stars?
No. Planets are objects made of some combination of rock, gas, and/or metal that orbit stars.
Why do the same planets have rings and others don't?
Because some planets are solid and others with rings are just huge balls of gas sometimes called gas giants
What is 1 fact about planets?
Some of them we could possibly live on and others we cant.
If the stars are like the sun then why don't the others planets stay warm?
The other planets in our are warmed by the sun, some more than others depending on their distance to the sun. The other stars are too far away to warm the planets.
