The four outer planets, also called giant planets or Jovian planets - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune - are all largely made up of gases and liquids, and have no solid surface. However, this doesn't mean that they're just four giant clouds! All four planets have a complicated internal structure, and while they have no solid surface, the actual gas parts don't extend very far into the planets.
Jupiter and Saturn, the gas giants, are made up mostly of hydrogen and helium - gases. They have thick, gaseous atmospheres, but further down the pressure rises and the hydrogen and helium are compressed into a liquid. Even further down, hydrogen molecules are broken up into a liquid of hydrogen atoms, which behaves as a metal - swirling currents within this "liquid metallic hydrogen" are presumably responsible for the magnetic fields around Jupiter and Saturn. Perhaps even further down hydrogen and helium could be compressed into solids! The two planets are thought to have cores made up of metal, rock and "ices" (water, methane, ammonia etc. - things that are frozen into ice at the temperatures in outer space. Inside the gas giants, things are very hot, but the immense pressures keep everything solid.)
Uranus and Neptune also have no solid surface, and have thick atmospheres of hydrogen and helium gas, with traces of other things like methane and ammonia (methane in the atmospheres of Uranus and Neptune absorbs red light and is responsible for the two planets' blue-green colours.) However, the interiors of the two planets are largely composed of ices (the temperatures are high, but the pressures are low, allowing these "ices" to be liquid.) For this reason Uranus and Neptune are often called "ice giants," although they are made up of liquid and gas rather than solid ice. Both ice giants probably have a core of molten rock and metal, like Jupiter and Saturn.
Gas giant planets, such as Jupiter and Saturn, are primarily made of hydrogen and helium gases. These planets have thick atmospheres composed mainly of these gases, with solid cores deep in their interiors.
Gas giants are planets whose atmosphere is predominantly composed of gases, such as hydrogen and helium. These planets have a small solid core surrounded by thick layers of gas. Examples of gas giants in our solar system include Jupiter and Saturn.
The outer planets, also known as gas giants, are primarily composed of hydrogen and helium. These planets have thick atmospheres made up of gases like methane, ammonia, and water vapor. Beneath their atmospheres, gas giants have dense layers of metallic hydrogen and rock.
A gas giant is a large planet that is not primarily made up of rock or other solid matter. Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus, and Saturn are gas giants in our Solar System. However, some scientists refer to Uranus and Neptune as "ice giants". Planets that over 10 Earth masses are termed giant planets.
There are four planets that are made out of gas: Jupiter, Saturn, Urans and Neptune. These planets are called the "gas giants" . The other four planets (Earth, Mercury, Venus and Mars) are mostly made out of rock.
No, those are the outer planets.
it is made up of gas and liquids.
There are 4 rocky planets and 4 gaseous planets in the solar system
i think the question is " are other planets made out of gas" because as far as i know there are no otter planets, although that would be cool. not all planets are made out of gas, some are gas though. neptune is a gas giant, that's just one example though
Gas planets are those planets which are not made up of rocks or materials. They are composed of gases only. Eg- Jupiter
No, the inner planets are the terrestrial or rocky planets. The outer planets are the gas giant planets; Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. They are mainly made up of Hydrogen and Helium gas.
because the outer planets are made of gas.
No, the planets are composed of gases, except for the cores of the planets which are made up of rock.
because they are made up of gas
Any atmosphere by definition is made of gas.
The atmosphere of the gas giants is usually made up of mostly of hydrogen and what?
They are mostly different kinds of gas.
