First you should understand why some stars do explode. Take a star that's maybe 10 times more massive than our sun. (mass is how much stuff is contained within a certain size). When nuclear fusion in such a star ends, the entire mass of the star almost instantly collapses onto its core where it "bounces" back in a tremendous explosion.
Our sun simply doesn't have enough mass to do that. Instead, when nuclear fusion ends its outer layers will *slowly* move inward for a time, then rebound *slowly* outward. You could call that an explosion, but it's an extremely s-l-o-o-ow explosion.

when its too hot, it throws some amount of mass which is called solar storm. There are too big heavenly bodies than the SUN but never explodes cause they have their own gravity and they stay where they are, but in case of sun its too hot that sometime it throws mass due to excessive hot and excessive chemical reaction taking place on it. Hope this helps remove your confusion, if not the search your topic on youtube to see some videos related to your topic.

In a few billion years time the sun will expand and engulf all the planets in our solar system. When it has done that it will cool down and turn into a white dwarf. When cooled it will turn into a black dwarf Like many others out there which is difficult to see. Now there was one time when eart may survive this because the suns gravitational pull will weaken. But as the planets the third to be engulfed it's unlikely to survive

it will NOT explode. it is too small. Some stars are thousands of times bigger than our Sun, just as Jupiter is many times bigger than the Moon.

No. When it runs out of energy it will turn twice in size and then shrink as much as possible then it will explode
