it loses energy due to hawking radiation, and disappears.

They don't.. There not living they are a phenomena.. They could however collapse in on upon itself..

== Only very small ones: ones with less than the mass of Mercury will evaporate very quickly (less than seconds) due to Hawking Radiation.

=== === The big black holes cannot die. Above a critical "size" or mass, a black hole, though it emits black body radiation (Hawking radiation, after the extraordinary physicist Stephen Hawking), cannot emit it very rapidly because its mass is so great. That means that the cosmic microwave background radiation that "warms" the universe to a toasty 2.7 K or so will "grow" the black hole faster than its black body radiation can "shrink" it.

Black Holes die when there is nothing more to feed on. No more light, no more stars, and no more planets, no more black holes. They shrink until they blow up. Plus, black holes move slow, so even if there is no more planets or stars or light in the area, it'll die. Sorry for the long answer

everything comes and goes, everything must die one day and so does black hole. However it will take extremely long for black holes to die. Some of the Black holes that were created by quasars are still active. when a black hole is about to die, it will become smaller and smaller.

The common answer would be "never," but the truth is that tiny subatomic particles of positive and negative mass are spontaneously (and frequently) called into existence in space, live for an nth of a second, and collide, thus causing them to cease existence in our dimension. The reason that this is important is that when these particles appear near a black hole, the positive mass is sent hurtling into space while the negative mass is pulled into the black hole therefore subtracting from its mass ever so slightly. After several centuries of this, the black holes fizzle out and become just another void in space.

Black holes are expected to evaporate eventually. This takes a very, very long time - much longer than the current age of the Universe. For a stellar black hole, this evaporation would take about 10 to the power 64 years; for a supermassive black hole, about 10 to the power 100 years.

They slowly evaporate over X amount of googleplex years.
