Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
This is the "old text book" answer.
Since the voyager space probes, it has become apparent that Uranus and Neptune are completely different bodies and they now have their own definition of Ice Giants.
So for the new text books.
- Gas Giants: Jupiter & Saturn
- Ice Giants: Uranus and Neptune.
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are giant gas planets because they are huge compared to Earth and are composed mostly of light gases like hydrogen and methane, with only a small rocky core deep in their centers.
The gas giants in our solar system are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. These planets are primarily composed of hydrogen and helium, with thick atmospheres and no solid surfaces.
