What elements and structures were needed to make our solar system?

Question

Nova Adams · Accepted Answer

1) Elements: Molecular Dust, Hydrogen, Helium, Lithium, Condensed Volatiles, Heavy Elements (Iron, Nickel, Aluminum, Rocky Silicates)
2) Structures - Forces, Energy and Other: Gravity, Fusion Reaction, Pressure, Temperature, Angular Momentum

The solar wind from the sun was so powerful that it swept away most of the lighter elements, such as hydrogen and helium, from the innermost planets, leaving behind mostly small, rocky worlds. The solar wind was much weaker in the outer regions, however, resulting in gas giants made mostly of hydrogen and helium. From this, we can surmise the elements the element and structure needed are: 1) Molecular Dust - interstellar dust

Hazel Asher · Answer

undefined The solar system was once a molecular cloud of gas and dust that collapsed under the force of gravity to form a rotating disk. The Sun was formed in the center of the cloud, and the planets, moons, and other celestial bodies were formed out of the material left over. The main elements involved in the formation of the solar system are hydrogen and helium, with heavier elements playing a role in the formation of planets and other objects.
