The Sun is a hot plasma (ionized matter)...

The Sun is a hot plasma (ionized matter) with its inner core at a temperature exceeding 107 K, and its outer surface at a temperature of about 6000 K. At these high temperatures, no substance remains in a solid or liquid phase. In what range do you expect the mass density of the Sun to be, in the range of densities of solids and liquids or gases ? Check if your guess is correct from the following data : mass of the Sun = `2.0 xx 10^30 kg`, radius of the Sun = `7.0 xx 10^8 m`.
