The Sun is closer to the Earth than the outer planets are.These distances are based on measurements along the widest parts of the Earth's and Jupiter's orbits. The distances can be shorter or longer depending on the positions of the bodies in their orbits. But, the Sun is always closer to the Earth than Jupiter and the other outer planets are
Is Jupiter more closer to the sun or to Pluto?
Jupiter is closer to the sun than Pluto. Jupiter is the fifth planet from the sun, while Pluto is considered a dwarf planet and lies much further out in our solar system.
Why can you never see a crescent Jupiter from Earth?
Jupiter always appears as a full disk or a nearly full disk when viewed from Earth because it is much larger and closer to the Sun than the Earth. This means that the angle between the Sun, Jupiter, and Earth is such that we always see most of Jupiter illuminated. A crescent phase, where only a portion of Jupiter is illuminated, is not possible due to this alignment.
How much time does it take for Jupiter to orbit earth?
Jupiter does not orbit the earth. It takes 11.86 years for Jupiter to orbit the sun.

Because you are so far away from Jupiter, and so much closer to the Earth.
How long does it take Jupiter to go across the sun?
From what perspective? From Earth, you will never see Jupiter go across the Sun, as the Earth is much closer to the Sun than Jupiter.
What is the closet planet to Jupiter is it mars?
Mars is closest when Jupiter and Mars are on the same side of the sun. Otherwise, if earth and Jupiter are on one side and Mars on the other, then Earth is closer. If Earth and Mars are on one side and Venus and Jupiter are on the other, than Venus is closest. When Earth, Venus, and Mars are on one side, and Mercury and and Jupiter are on the other, Mercury is closest. All four are pretty much always closer to Jupiter than Saturn ever is.
