its made of gases like hydrogen and helium
No. There is nothing solid in the sun. It consists entirely of superheated gas.
First of all the sun is not a planet. Second of all the sun does not change materials from the front to back. The sun is always gaseous.
The inner planets did not collect gas like the gas giants because the intense heat and solar wind from the young Sun blew away most of the lighter gases, leaving mostly heavier elements to accrete into rocky planets. The gravity of the inner planets was not strong enough to hold onto light gases due to their proximity to the Sun.
Mercury is a rocky planet. The inner planets (first four planets from the sun) are rocky planets (which means that you could stand on them) and are the smallest. While the outer planets (last four planets from the sun) are gas planets and the biggest.
Asteroid - a small, rocky body that orbits the Sun.

A gas giant is similar in composition to the Sun. The Sun is much bigger than the gas giants and it is a star not a planet, of course.

It's A Rock. A Gas you can't feel. I'm going to say that yes it is a rock but our second thought was gas so don't feel mistakened
Neptune is not rocky; it is a gas giant composed mainly of hydrogen and helium. It is very cold due to its distance from the Sun, with temperatures dropping to around -200 degrees Celsius.

The four planets whose orbits are nearest the sun are all rocky planets. They include Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.

The main factor that separates the inner rocky planets from the outer gas planets is their composition and distance from the Sun. The inner rocky planets, including Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, are closer to the Sun and have solid surfaces made primarily of rock and metal. The outer gas planets, like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, are located farther from the Sun and are composed mostly of gases and liquids, with no solid surface.
Mercury is a rocky planet and is too close to the sun to retain much of an atmosphere, much less become a gas giant.
Rocky
the moon is but the sun is not
