The suns diameter (solar diameter) is roughly 1,392,000km across, while the distance between the earth and sun is around 150,000,000 miles on average. So we are talking around 107.8 solar diameters between us and the suns centre or 107.3 solar diameters to the suns surface.

Approximately 109 Earths lined up in a row would fit across the face of the Sun. So, if we consider the Sun's diameter is roughly 109 times that of Earth, we can say that about 109 solar diameters would fit between the Sun and Earth.
The observer of a solar eclipse would typically be located on Earth, witnessing the event as the moon passes between the sun and Earth, causing either a partial or total eclipse. The specific location on Earth where the observer would be situated would depend on where the eclipse is visible from.
No. If the moon is between the earth and sun, It cannot possibly be also lit from the sun on the side that is facing the earth!
A solar eclipse can occur when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking some or all of the Sun's light. Solar eclipses happen during the new moon phase when the alignment is just right for the Moon to cast a shadow on Earth.

Earth would be the third planet in the solar system alphabetically, after Earth and Jupiter.
