first red giant then white dwarf ultimately DEAD
When the sun runs out of fuel for fusion, it will expand into a red giant star and eventually shed its outer layers to form a planetary nebula. The core that remains will cool down and contract into a dense white dwarf star.
core and radiation
At first, the sun will soon run out of its primary fuel, hydrogen. This will cause the sun's layers to expand, becoming a red giant. This will likely happen in 5 billion years. While scientists are unsure whether the expanded the sun will engulf the Earth or not, it will likely end life on Earth nonetheless.After it runs out of all fuel, including the heavier elements, it will begin shedding its outer layers and become a planetary nebula. Life on Earth would've almost certainly ceased by then.
The sun burns hydrogen as fuel through a process called nuclear fusion. This process involves the fusion of hydrogen atoms to create helium, releasing energy in the form of light and heat.
Hydrogen is the fuel used by the sun, helium is the waste produced by hydrogen use in the fusion process
Yes, but it is a long way off
No, it is hydrogen that is the fuel for fusion in the sun

no combustion dose not fuel the sun but the sun is fueled by a nuclear reaction known as fusion.

Fusion of hydrogen into helium
The hydrogen in the Sun is fuel for the nuclear fusion reaction.
By that time earth will be no more:c, but just to answer your question, it will eventually become a black dwarf.

The sun is powered by the fusion of hydrogen and helium in it's center. The heat in the center of the sun, and the pressure in the center, is great enough to cause the fusion to happen.
