Is the sun made out of burning gasses and why?
helium is made from the sun from the atmosphere and is believed to have a percentage of 70 percent. Well, actually, helium isn't made in the sun. But even then, the atmosphere of the sun is actually made up of 54% helium to be exact. (Not far off from what you said, though.) Correction: Helium IS produced in the sun! hydrogen is fused into helium and this liberates large amounts of energy.
I know that the Sun burns hydrogen to create helium but what is the Sun doing with all of this helium What would happen if the sun had no helium And what role does helium play in making the sun hot?
Just like a fire is gradually cooling down,so the Sun is.Its hottest elements(hydrogen)become helium,which is COLDER
The sun burns helium to make what other gas?
The sun burns small amounts of helium and when combined with oxygen, the helium makes neon. The sun burns mostly hydrogen.
The sun burns hydrogenate an helium to make what?
The sun fuses hydrogen to make helium. It will be several billion years before the sun fuses helium to make heavier elements.
What does the sun turn into helium?
If you are asking "how helium formed the sun?" then for your information, sun and all the stars are formed mostly from Hydrogen. And if you are asking "How helium is formed in the sun?", the answer is that the Hydrogen in the sun fuses in itself(that's where from the sun get's its energy and luminosity) producing variety of elements like helium, carbon oxygen,iron etc.
What would be the percent of helium gas to make up solar system?
Given that the Sun has 99+ percent of the mass of the Solar System, the percentage of helium in the Solar System is basically the percentage of helium in the Sun. That's about 25%.
Which of these gases is presnet in the greatest percentage in the composition of the sun?
Hydrogen & helium
What percentage of the Sun is composed of helium?
The sun in composed of 25 percent helium. The other 75 percent is hydrogen. The sun also has small amounts of other elements such as neon, oxygen, carbon, and magnesium.

What is the percentage of helim and hydrogen on the sun?
The Sun is three quarters hydrogen one quarter helium. (Trace amounts of other gases are also present.)
Is there helium on the sun?
Yes. The Sun comprises about 25% helium. (24.8%)
What does helium have to do with the sun?
The sun is actively converting hydrogen to helium in its core and is roughly 23% helium. Helium was first discovered by examining sunlight.
Nuclear fusion on the sun changes hydrogen into?
Helium
What is the origin of the name for helium?
Helium was first discovered in the sun spectroscopically. It get its name from the Greek word, Helios, meaning "the sun".

Helium was discovered in the sun before it was discovered on earth. How?
Helium was discovered in the sun specroscopically
What is origan of the name helium?
Helium was first discovered in the sun. the name helium is derived from the Greek word, Helios, meaning the sun.
