The planet Jupiter is predominantly made up of hydrogen and helium. The core of planet is thought to contain some rock and metallic hydrogen, but Jupiter is mainly made up of gas, hence its classification as a gas giant.

No, they are made of gas.
Jupiter is mostly made out of gas not rock.
Jupiter is a gas planet, there is no rock there.
Actually Jupiter's surface is made of gas, the inner core is rock, therefore it is not a big ball of gas. if the surface is made of gas no markings can be evident on the surface.
Jupiter is a gas planet (or a gas giant).
Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus are known as 'gas giants', meaning that they are made of gas. Pluto is made of rock.
