In which order did the events forming our solar system occur?

The solar nebula became hot and dense pulling in more gas. This flattened into a rotating disk. It spun faster and faster, forming the Sun.

Gas was pulled toward the center, forming the Sun. Gas flattened into a rotating disk and became hot and dense, forming a solar nebula that spun faster and faster.

Gas flattened into a rotating disk and became hot and dense, forming a solar nebula that spun faster and faster. Gas was pulled toward the center, forming the Sun.

The solar nebula spun faster and faster and flattened into a rotating disk. Most of the gas was pulled toward the center, where it became hot and dense, forming the Sun.

The solar nebula spun faster and faster and flattened into a rotating disk. Most of the gas was pulled toward the center, where it became hot and dense, forming the Sun.

Explanation:

The most recent studies still do not explain exactly how our solar system was formed, but one of the most accepted theories says that before the sun and planets existed, what existed in place of the solar system was a gigantic cloud of gases and dust (nebula)), much larger than the current solar system.

The gases in that cloud would be the ones we know today: oxygen, nitrogen and mainly hydrogen and helium. The dust would be formed by all the other chemical elements: iron, aluminum, uranium, etc. For some reason not yet explained, this cloud found favorable conditions to gather and join in small blocks, which in turn began to come together in larger and larger blocks.

The block that first formed in the center of the cloud is believed to have become so large and heavy that its gravitational force has become strong enough to trap gases very easily. Continuing to attract gases due to the gravitational force, this block increased so much in size and mass that it ended up becoming what we now call the Sun. The smaller blocks that formed around the central block then gave rise to the planets.
