Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Jupiter and Saturn are both gas giants with thick atmospheres and deep interiors. Under the immense pressure and temperature conditions in their cores, hydrogen gas is compressed into a liquid state and becomes conductive. This liquid hydrogen is theorized to take on a metallic state due to its ability to conduct electricity. While Uranus and Neptune may have liquid oceans deep beneath their atmospheres, their cores are not thought to be hot enough to produce liquid metallic hydrogen.
