Is Saturn the only planet that has rings?

Saturn is not the only planet that has a ring system, but it is by far the most prominent. Uranus has a system of five rings (here's a picture) and Jupiter also has two rings (here's another). However, while Saturn's rings are composed of dust particles, the rings around Uranus and Jupiter are primarily composed of an electromagnetic plasma (hot ionized gas!). There are several competing theories for the formation of Saturn's rings. The first is that Saturn's rings are a remnant left over from when the planet was formed. As gas and dust collapses to form a planet it forms a disk that orbits the young planet. Material in this disk gradually falls onto the planet or diffuses away. The rings could be what is left of that initial proto-planetary disk.

Is the outer planets hot?

What gases are Jupiter Saturn and Neptune made of?

Jupiter and Saturn are mostly hydrogen and helium, while Uranus and Neptune have rocky cores and an outer mantle containing a hot slush of water, ammonia, and methane. Most of the hydrogen on Jupiter and Saturn is compressed into liquid and solid forms, deep within their dense atmospheres. This is in spite of the very high temperatures near their tiny rocky cores.

What makes Jupiter such a large planet?

There's a lot of stuff in it. There's no theoretical reason Jupiter should be larger than, say, Saturn, it just happens to be that way. At one time we thought massive planets could only form reasonably far from their central star, but we now know of many examples of "hot Jupiters" ... very massive planets in very close orbits.
