When a stellar remnant is over about 3 to 4 times the mass of the sun (see Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff limit) it is estimated to have insufficient outward pressure to resist gravitational collapse into a black hole. Note that larger stars would often explode into a supernova or become a planetary nebula, losing most of their mass this way first - perhaps over 75 percent - and thus the original star's mass needed to have a remnant heavy enough to collapse in a black hole would be much heavier than 3 times solar mass.

What remains after supernova?
A neutron star or a pulsar, or a black hole.
Can any black hole turn into a neutron star?
No. A black hole will remain a black hole. A neutron star is a remnant of a star not massive enough to become a black hole.
Is the black hole in space a blue star?
No. A black hole may be the remnant of the core of what was once a blue star, but the black hole itself is as black as anything can possibly be.
Will a supernova cause a black whole?
Either a black hole, or a neutron star. That depends on how much mass is left after the supernova explosion.
Sentence for black hole?
A black hole is a type of star with excessive gravity. Here are some sentences.The star was sucked into the black hole close by.A black hole will even absorb light.The scientist is studying a black hole.
What does the black hole do to the star?
A black hole originated as a star, that is, the star converted to a black hole.
Did black hole creats another star?
A black hole does not create a star. A black hole is formed when a star dies.
What remains after supernova?
A neutron star or a pulsar, or a black hole.
Can any black hole turn into a neutron star?
No. A black hole will remain a black hole. A neutron star is a remnant of a star not massive enough to become a black hole.
A collapsed star from which light cannot escape?
The collapses star gets squeezed by collapses gas and turns into a black hole.
Is a black hole a stage of a star?
Yes black hole is last stage of a star
Is a black hole only made out of a star?
Yes. A black hole is a collapsed star.
What star has an event horizon?
That refers to a black hole - but a black hole is not exactly a star.
What would happen if a black hole was too close to a star in a constellation?
If a star was "too close" to a black hole, that star would be captured by the black hole's gravity and be pulled into it.
Is the black hole in space a blue star?
No. A black hole may be the remnant of the core of what was once a blue star, but the black hole itself is as black as anything can possibly be.
What forms when stars explode?
A supernova, resulting in either a neutron star or black hole. Also may heavy elements are blown out of the star during the explosion.
Will a supernova cause a black whole?
Either a black hole, or a neutron star. That depends on how much mass is left after the supernova explosion.
