In our solar system, at least, the planet with the greatest mass does happen to be the one with the most known moons. But I think the cause and effect work the other way. It's not the moons that give the planet strong gravity. It's the strong gravity of the planet that captures a bunch of moons.
Yes, gravity does depend on the planet you are on. The force of gravity is determined by the mass of the planet and your distance from its center. Therefore, gravity will be different on each planet based on these factors.
Gravity holds the atmosphere around the planet. Gravity is the force that attracts a body toward the center of the planet. For most purposes Newton's laws of gravity apply, with minor modifications to take the general theory of relativity into account.
Mercury has the smallest mass of the 8 planets at 5.5% of the mass of the Earth. It therefore has the least gravity of all the planets.
No. The strength of gravity on a planet depends on its size and mass.
Mercury, because it's the smallest if you don't consider Pluto to be a planet.

the bigger the planet the more gravity.the smaller the planet the least gravity
Yes. At least, the gravity resulting from planet Earth.
Jupiter has the strongest gravity. The bigger the planet, the stronger the gravity. The moon is kind of small, so it's gravity is weaker.
Jupiter, as it has the most gravity.
Jupiter
Earth & Venus.
Earth is the most massive terrestrial planet, so it has the highest surface gravity.
Mercury is the least massive of all the planets. The least massive planet is Mercury (0.055 Earths). However, the planet with the weakest gravity is Mars. I am of course not treating Pluto as a Planet (as it is no longer categorized as a planet), if I were to count Pluto then it would be the least massive ( 0.0021 Earths).
In our solar system, Jupiter
A force that most affects the path of a planet around the Sun is gravity.
