Mainly Hydrogen more than 90%, but due to nuclear fusion, the hydrogen contineously bonds with other elements forming bigger elements, eventually fusion will cease to exist once the core of the sun reaches the stage where iron is the only element left to combine, then the sun will either explode or turn into a white dwarf, most likely the latter.

The Sun doesn't go anywhere; it sits there in the middle of the solar system. What is happening is that the Earth is an enormous ball that is turning. The Sun's light is shining on the Earth all the time, and whichever side of Earth is facing the Sun is experiencing "day". As the Earth keeps turning the side that was in the sunlight turns away from the Sun and the Sun appears to go down. But the Earth keeps turning, and soon the Sun "rises" and it is daytime again.
