As our Sun, is only a small Star, for its age, it will never ever create a Supernova - that is only for Large Stars, and, for a black hole, you also need a supernova, so sorry, but there will never be a black hole in this solar system.
The Sun, will swell, and cool to a Red Giant, but, as you say, it will explode, but hardly anything compared to a Supernova. The Sun, as some have said, will then decrease to its core becoming a dull-lit White Dwarf, and slowly burn itself out of fuel and eventually die. What happens to the core, however, is completely beyond me.
Think inside the box
