Answer:

1. A nebula located in the Milky Way

galaxy begins pulling nearby

hydrogen atoms into its orbit.

2. The Sun expands greatly and cools.

It is larger and redder

3. The temperature in the core of the

nebula reaches 14 million Kelvin.

4. The Sun is a white dwarf with a

dim glow.

Answer:

The Sun is a medium sized star present at the center of the solar system. It is primarily formed of Hydrogen and Helium. Like other stars, Sun was also born in a Nebula, and moved on to become a Main sequence star. It has a lifespan of about 10 billion years. At the end of its life when all the hydrogen fused into higher elements, the Sun would eventually throw out majority of its mass and the core would survive as a white dwarf.

The correct chronological order of events is:

1. A nebula located in the Milky Way galaxy begins pulling nearby hydrogen atoms in its orbit.

2. The Nebula shrinks in its volume due to gravity, becoming denser and hotter. But, it's not hot enough for nuclear fusion.

3. The temperature in the core of the Nebula reaches 14 million Kelvin.

4. Hydrogen atoms begin shedding their electrons and colliding with one another.

5. The Sun enters the main sequence stage. The energy created as a result of its radiation begins nurturing life on planet such as Earth.

6. The Sun uses up all the hydrogen in its core.

7. The Sun expands greatly and cools . It is larger and redder.

8. The Sun completely runs out of hydrogen to fuse. Its outer layers are pushed away, and a cloud of ionized gas surrounds its core.

9. The Sun is a white dwarf with a dim glow.
