The Sun is made of just gases in the following proportions:
The composition of the sun is 71% hydrogen, 27.1% helium and less than 2% of all other elements.

Gas. About 70% Hydrogen and 30% Helium. They exist in a state of extreme pressure and extreme temperatures. They are held together in ball form by a balancing act between Pressure(gravity) and temperatures measured in 10's of million degrees centigrade. The energy is produced by the conversion of hydrogen to helium at the rate of 20million tons of hydrogen per second. Despite the fact that the mass of the sun is over 4 times that of granite it is still a gas.

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
At a temperature of millions of degrees
Yo ho, its hot, the sun is not
A place where we could live
But here on earth thered be no life
Without the light it gives
We need its light
We need its heat
We need its energy
Without the sun, without a doubt
Thered be no you and me
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
At a temperature of millions of degrees
The sun is hot
It is so hot that everything on it is a gas: iron, copper, aluminum, and many others.
The sun is large
If the sun were hollow, a million earths could fit inside. and yet, the sun is only a middle-sized star.
The sun is far away
About 93 million miles away, and thats why it looks so small.
And even when its out of sight
The sun shines night and day
The sun gives heat
The sun gives light
The sunlight that we see
The sunlight comes from our own suns
Atomic energy
Scientists have found that the sun is a huge atom-smashing machine. the heat and light of the sun come from the nuclear reactions of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and helium.*

the sun is made up of gases such as helium which has a number of atoms of 9 780%,hydrogen which has a number of atoms of 100 000 %
,carbon which has 35% number of atoms,oxygen which has 74 %number of atoms and iron which has a number of atoms of 3%
