We determine the structure of the solar convective envelope by solving the basic equations for mass conservation and hydrostatic equilibrium with the imposition of the sound-speed profile determined from helioseismology and the equation of state. The solution is required to match with the structure of the radiative core, which is also determined with the imposition of the sound speed profile. The helium abundance is obtained as a part of the solutions.
