Mars spins prograde or direct (counterclockwise)
Venus spins retrograde (opposite) relative to the earth's movement.
Jupiter
Rotation Period about Axis: 9.8 hours
Period about the Sun: 12 years
Earth
Rotation Period with respect to Sun (Length of Day): 24 hrs
Rotation Period with respect to stars (Sidereal Day): 23 hrs 56 min
Revolution Period about the Sun (Length of a Year): 365 days 5 hrs

Revolution around the sun or around the earth axis?
It takes 23 hours and 56 minutes for the earth to make 1 revolution around its axis and 365.3 days to make 1 revolution around the sun
It takes 9.9 hours for jupiter to make 1 revolution around its axis and 11.86 years to make 1 revolution around the sun
Again what rotation are you talking about?
Venus has a retrograde axial rotation (rotates clockwise) and a nearly circular orbit around the sun.
Mars has a prograde axial rotation (rotates counter clockwise) and has a very eliptical orbit around the sun (compared to the other planets)
