The Period of revolution decribes the time taken for an object to orbit another or the orbital period. For the Gas giant planets, this is the closest of the four - Jupiter. the closer a planet is to the sun (or any orbiting object is to another), the shorter the period of revolution. Jupiters period of revolution about the sun is 11 years and 314 days.

The rotation period is the time it takes a planet to spin once on its axis, rotating about its axis. This has no relationship to the planet to sun distance, although again it is Jupiter at 9h 55 mins to make one turn. This is the quickest out of all eight planets.
