The corona is the outermost layer around the sun.
Other than that, it is a whitish blue layer around the sun which can only be seen during a solar eclipse. The corona extends thousands of kilometres into space. That is because it is a layer of gas boiled off from the sun, barely escaping the core's gravitational pull. It is the hottest layer of the sun's atmosphere with temperatures reaching to about 1 500 000 degrees C.
The Sun, like all stars, is a gaseous body. It is composed of hydrogen, mostly. There is a little bit of helium, oxygen and other elements, but it's mostly hydrogen plasma.
The surface of the sun is very hot, so if you go there, be sure to go at night.
The photosphere is commonly mistaken as the name for the surface of the sun, however it is actually the thin layer of gas surrounding the sun. The name of the visible surface of the sun is the chromosphere.
The visible surface of the Sun is the photosphere. This is where the gases are opaque.
The outer surface of the Sun is called the Corona.
The Sun's surface is 5,500oC and 9,900oF

The part of the sun that lies directly above the visible surface is called the chromosphere. It literally means "sphere of color".
This question must be rephrased to make it more intelligible and specific.
The sun does not have a solid surface. The visible surface of the Sun is the photosphere, it is the layer below which the Sun becomes opaque to visible light. this layer is hundreds of km thick.
The Sun does not have a surface as we know it, but a photosphere which is the visible surface of the Sun.
The visible surface of the Sun has a temperature of 5,700°K which is approximately 9,800°F or 5,427°C.10,000

The visible outside part of the Sun can be said to be its surface. But the Sun doesn't have a solid surface on which you might stand, if that's what you mean. The "surface" we see is called the "photosphere".

What are the dark patches on the sun's surface called
The layer of the sun that is only visible in an eclipse is called the corona.
The name of the sun's surface layer is called the chromosphere. The other layers of the sun is called photosphere and convection zone.
