Answer
Yes, the Sun has density.
Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume. The Sun's density varies significantly from its core to its outer atmosphere.
- The Sun's average density is about 1.41 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).
- This is slightly denser than water (1 g/cm³).
- The core of the Sun is extremely dense, estimated to be around 150 g/cm³, due to the immense pressure from the overlying layers.
- The Sun's outer layers, like the corona, are extremely tenuous and have very low density.
