The sun's surface is primarily composed of plasma, which is a state of matter similar to gas but consists of charged particles, including ions and electrons. While it can exhibit gas-like properties, the high temperatures and pressures in the sun cause the atoms to become ionized, resulting in a plasma state. This plasma is responsible for various solar phenomena, such as solar flares and sunspots.
Plasma.
"The core is made of hot, dense gas in the plasmic state"
Yes, any ionized gas is a plasma.
The term for eruptions of gas on the Sun's surface is "solar flares." These intense bursts of radiation occur when magnetic energy that has built up in the solar atmosphere is released. Solar flares can affect space weather and impact satellite communications and power grids on Earth. Another related phenomenon is "coronal mass ejections," which involve large expulsions of plasma and magnetic fields from the Sun's corona.
Because the sun made of hydrogen and helium, which at the temperatures the sun sustains cannot maintain a liquid or solid form. The sun is actually primarily made of plasma. Plasma is considered by some scientists to be a unique form of gas, and by others to be a different form of matter, entirely its own.
It is a very bright mass of roiling gas or plasma.

Hydrogen.
it isn't a solid, liquid, nor a gas. IT IS PLASMA :P
Most stars' surfaces are plasma. Plasma is the state of matter above gas, at which molecules move so rapidly that they generate an electric current. An example of plasma on Earth is lightning. Therefore, in layman terms, you could say that the sun's surface is made of lightning. Of course, that's not entirely accurate, but is certainly more so than liquid or gas.
The Sun does not have a "crust"; the surface of the Sun is 12,000 degree-hot hydrogen plasma.
A prominence is when a solar flare ejects matter from the suns surface as a stream of incandescent gas.
The path of photons through the Sun's plasma is called radiative diffusion. Photons travel through the Sun's plasma by bouncing off charged particles in a random walk pattern until they reach the surface and are emitted as sunlight.
Plasma can occur anywhere where there is extreme heat, plasma is not a substance but the fourth state after solid, liquid and gas. It is effect superheated gas, an example is the glow on the nose of the shuttle as it re-enters the atmosphere, another is the surface of the sun.
Plasma is a state of matter that does not have an open surface. It is a high-energy state where particles are ionized and do not have a defined boundary like a solid, liquid, or gas.
because the plasma is gas
