An average star such as your sun will eventually end up as?
A white dwarf.
What is the final stage in life for a star as massive as the sun?
In fact, the sun is not massive. It is an average, yellow star. When the sun goes into its next stage, it becomes a red giant. This could consume the whole solar system. Then, when it burns out, the gases escape into space, and it becomes a little tiny star called a white dwarf. Eventually it will burn out, and that's how the sun's lifecycle works.
Why is the sun or the star eventually die?
A star eventually uses up all of it's hydrogen in nuclear fusion. They fusion of hydrogen into helium is what makes the star glow bright and hot. When all the helium is fused, the star collapses inward on itself, and becomes a small "white dwarf" star, essentially a pile of "stellar embers". That's the end of a star's life.
How is star matter recycled?
a star explodes or becomes a white dwarf, then the matter of that star becomes other things.
What happens to a small star when it runs out of fuel?
It loses its outer layers because it has expanded to the point where gravity can no longer hold it together. The inner part of the star becomes a white dwarf, called a white dwarf because it is still glowing with the remaining heat of the dead star. It eventually becomes a black dwarf, where it has radiated all its energy out and no longer glows.
Can a mid sized star become a or a black dwarf?
Eventually, yes. A mid-size star becomes a white dwarf, which eventually cools to become a black dwarf.

What are the stages of the life cycle of an average star?
-average size -expands and becomes a red giant -cools and contracts, becomes a white dwarf star -massive sized stars -swell and become red supergiants -explode (called a supernova) -become a black hole -become a neutron star
Would an average mass main sequence star like our sun eventually become a neutron star black hole?
sup.

What is the difference between a star that becomes a red giant and one that becomes a red supergaint?
The mass of the star.
How a star becomes a star?
I don't know u answer it
The Sun will eventually end up as a what?
Earth's sun is currently a main sequence star which has a small mass. Eventually it will expand into Red Giant star once the core runs out of hydrogen and then helium gas. After the Red Giant phase, the star throws off its outer layers and then becomes a planetary nebula. A sun-like star will either become a white dwarf or black dwarf following the planetary nebula.
What happens to a nova star after it becomes so bright?
after a nova star becomes bright it turns into a dwarf and explodes.
