How much of the nebula matter became the Sun?
A
33%
B
66%
C
99%
D
77%
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -As the nebula collapsed under its own gravity, it spun faster and flattened into a disk. Most of the nebula’s material was pulled toward the center to form our Sun, which accounts for 99.8% of our solar system’s mass. Much of the remaining material formed the planets and other objects that now orbit the Sun.

Detailed explanation-2: -The vast majority (99.86%) of the system’s mass is in the Sun, with most of the remaining mass contained in the planet Jupiter.

Detailed explanation-3: -The sun lies at the heart of the solar system, where it is by far the largest object. It holds 99.8% of the solar system’s mass and is roughly 109 times the diameter of the Earth-about one million Earths could fit inside the sun.

Detailed explanation-4: -The gas was mostly hydrogen and helium that made up 98% of the mass of the initial solar nebula. The remaining 2% of material in the nebula consisted of various ices and rock composed of the heavier elements. The ices can be divided into three groups[1].
