This property of facing the sun is mostly observed in young flowerheads and generally stops once the flower starts to bloom ( mature sunflowers generally face east). The fascinating phenomenon of flowers following the sun across the sky is called heliotropism. The sunflower plant contains hormones called auxins. Happy Flowers!
