Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Sun is made primarily of hydrogen and helium gas, which is in a state of plasma. Plasma is a state of matter in which the atoms have been stripped of their electrons, resulting in a highly ionized gas. The high temperature and pressure in the Sun's core cause the gas to take on this plasma state. The other phases of matter - liquid and solid - do not apply to the Sun.
