What feature separates the rocky planets from the gas planets?
Depth of the atmosphere. Gas planets have the thickest and largest of atmospheres. Below gas planets atmospheres are pools of hydrogen or in some cases volatile ices that form in a giant ocean above the surface. It's estimated that Jupiter's rocky surface is only about the size of three Earths but the bloated atmosphere makes for most of the planet.
Which planets have poisonous gases?
Venus and Jupiter are known to have atmospheres with poisonous gases. Venus's atmosphere is mostly made up of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide, while Jupiter's atmosphere contains ammonia and methane, among other toxic gases.
Are the outer planets made of gases?
YES
What are the last four planets made of?
gases
What are the giant outer planets made mostly made out of?
Gases
What are the two main reason why Jovian planets have much thicker atmoshperes than the Terrestrial planets?
While terrestrial planets are made of rock and have gases in the atmosphere, jovian planets are made almost entirly of gases. If an atmosphere is made of gases in a planet, then the atmosphere of the planets with more gases will be thicker.
What is the Name for planets whose atmosphere is made up of mostly gases?
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.
What is Jupiter's surface materials?
jupiter does not have a known suface. its atmosphere is made of gases.
What planets atmosphere is made up of a mixture of gases?
The atmosphere of Earth is made up of a mixture of gases, primarily nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (21%). Other gases present in smaller amounts include argon, carbon dioxide, and water vapor.
Which planet is only made of gas?
There are for planets made of gas not one they are Jupiter Neptune Saturn and Venus
What planets atmosphere is mostly nitrogen?
This one...the earth. The other planets are made up of critical gases,like methane, with frozen planets like Pluto made up of layers of frozen gases, such as a suspected layer of oxygen underneath layers of nitrogen and methane, and sulfuric gases which tend to snow out on the cold side of the planet.

Is Mars made of gas or rock?
No. Mars has a rocky surface and a metallic core.
Why are the four terrestrial planets called that?
made up of rock, have a suface unlike the the gas giants ( ahve no surface , made up of gases)
Which planets have poisonous gases?

What is the difference between terrestial planets and gas planets?
The terrestrial planets are small in size and mass, they are rocky, solid and dense, all four terrestrial planets have 3 moons between them. They are warm and close to the sun. Terrestrial planets USUALLY have thin atmosphere. The Gas Giants are huge in size, have rings made from dust, debris, ice, rock. They very cold (not close to the sun at all) and light (made from gas.) They have several moons between them (167, I think) and lastly Gas Giants usually have thick and deep atmosphere.
What planets are just made of gases?
Type your answer here... all planets are made of gasses
