Okay, very confusing question...
So, assuming you want to know how heavy only the "solid at room temperature" elements of the sun are, let's try this.
The sun is 1.989 × 10^30 kilograms.
According to this: https://www.thoughtco.com/element-composition-of-sun-607581 we can see the % of total mass for each element.
Doing the math and removing the "gas at room temperature" elements... the total mass would be:
1.7901 * 10^28 kilograms
Note: Pretty sure I've messed something up here in the calculations but the mass is so ridiculously heavy that I don't think it really matters.
Seems like you answered the question, OP comments at the bottom and thinks it might be picked up by hand in terms of weight.
