The similarities of high-end low-mass stars?
The similarities of high-end low-mass stars include their ability to fuse hydrogen and helium at the same time, very short lifetimes, and being incredibly luminous.
When A neutron star is the densest substance in the universe What does it tell you about its mass and volume?
It means it's mass is very high and its volume is very low. A standard neutron star has a mass thousands of times greater than the sun, but a volume of a small city. This ridiculously high density and pressure also account for the high temperatures of neutron stars. PS. Quark stars are denser than neutron.
Where is the zero age main sequence located?
Stars condense slowly out of coulds of hydrogen. But the final stage is quick as the star starts to radiate at a very high temperature. Stars start very hot so they are on the left of the HR diagram (the main sequence). How high up they are on the diagram depends on their mass.
Why the metal elements are hard?
have very high density and have high atomic mass
A very high mass star dies more violently than a low mass star?
Yes.
What is made when stars die?
There are three types of stellar remnants. Low to medium mass stars will become white dwarfs. High mass stars will become neutron stars. Very high mass stars will become black holes.
What percent of stars are low mass medium mass and high mass?
We can't be sure, because low-mass stars are very dim, and we can't see them. They "live" darn near forever. We think there are very great number of them, but because we can hardly detect them, we can't be sure. In fact, the IAU recently tripled their estimate of the number of stars in the universe, because of the difficulty of seeing brown-dwarf stars. There are probably relatively few very high mass stars at any one time; high-mass stars burn very brightly, can be seen from very great distances, and die very early - and messy! - deaths, in supernova explosions. If I had to guess - and this is ONLY a guess! - I would guess that 85% of all stars are low mass, 1% or fewer are "high mass", and the remaining 14% are in that vague middle.
Is the sun a low mass or high mass star?
There are more low mass stars. this is for two reasons:- # the star forming process generates more low mass stars # High mass stars burn out very quickly and explode as supernovas and thus over time there are less and less of them.

How is a stars life?
A star's "life cycle" depends mostly on its initial mass; everything is determined by mass. Small, low-mass stars may shine essentially forever, while very large high-mass stars may grow old and go supernova in only a few dozen million years.
Do stars that are very hot and very dim have a small mass or a small radius?
stars that are dim probably have both a small mass and a larger radius.
Why can't we see the very lowest mass stars?
we cant see lower mass stars because were blind.... :)
Does smaller mass stars have a greater luminosity than larger mass stars?
This is not necessarily true. most of the time stars with a larger diameter have more mass but some stars with a smaller diameter are more dense and have a greater mass. Find a main sequence star chart and you can compare the data.
IS S Doradus going to exsplode?
Probably. It is an extremely bright star (a very high absolute magnitude), with a high mass, and such stars tend to end up as a supernova.
Are stars very big?
Indeed, stars are very big. Some of them can grow to be 250 times the mass of the sun. See related link for information about stars.
Why the stars are not in gaseous state even though they are very hot?
Due to graviational forces, the mass of large stars can harbor elements, such as liquid metals. Even under very hot temperatures, gases can turn solid under high pressure.
