The diameter of Charon, one of Pluto's moons, is 1,413 miles. The diameter of Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, is 1,950 miles. Charon is smaller than Europa.
2½ Moon Diameter = Earth's Diameter- 1 Moon Diameter. Earth's Diameter = 7/2 Moon
A solar eclipse is when the moon is causing a shadow on the Earth. A lunar eclipse is when the Earth is causing shadow on the moon.
When the moon's shadow falls upon the earth this is known as a solar eclipse.
During a total solar eclipse, the umbra or darkest part of the moon's shadow creates darkness on a small section of the Earth's surface. The penumbra is a part of the moons shadow that is more wide spread and not nearly as dark.
Yes. The Earth's shadow "eclipses" the Moon. You can still see the Moon in the shadow, but it's redder and darker. Incidentally, only Full Moons can be eclipsed.

The Moons semi-major axis is 384,399 km The Moons mean diameter is 3474.2 km. So about 110 moons would fill this gap.

Venus has no moons.

Your question makes no sense.
the combined diameter of Mars and its moons is 6,805 kilometers, or 39% larger than Mercury, 56% the size of Venus, 53% the size of the moon, 5% the diameter of Jupiter, 6% the diameter of Saturn, 13% the diameter of Uranus, and 14% the diameter of Neptune.
