Introduction to the density of the sun
The average density of the sun is 1.4 grams per cubic centimeter, but the density inside and outside the sun is different. Most of its shell is gas, and its density is very small. But the further inside, the denser and denser the material. The density of the core may be 160 grams per cubic centimeter, which is nearly 20 times greater than the density of steel. Its total mass is 330,000 times that of the earth.
