You would use "on December" when referring to a specific date or day in the month of December. For example, if someone were to ask you "What day are you leaving for your trip?", you can answer with "on December 20th" or "I'm leaving for my trip on December 20th."
As for "in December", you would use it when you're not sure of the date. For example, "I'm leaving sometime in December" or "the trip is sometime in December".
