How is it the super novas after the big bang didn't form black holes but rather elements?

There are two explanations. First, when a massive star forms a black hole, usually only a small portion of the star's mass actually goes into the black hole. Most of the rest is blasted away in a supernova, enriching the surrounding space with heavier elements.
Second, there are also pair-instability supernovae. Such supernovae occur in extremely massive stars with a very low content of heavier elements, which likely existed in the early universe. Pair-instability supernovae will blow away the entire star, leaving behind no black hole or neutron star remnant.

What are white holes?
Hypothetical celestial bodies that behave in an opposite manner to black holes and rather than pulling everything in they spit matter out. White holes also have a unstable gravity and collapse and turn into black holes.
All of the elements heavier than oxygen are created by fusion reactions in?
black holes
Is there anything black holes can't suck up?
There are hypotheses about so called 'virtual particles' that may travel faster than speed of light, and hence are not sucked up by Black Holes. Also, Black Holes cannot suck another bigger Black Hole, when they meet a bigger one, they get sucked up rather.
Can black holes dies?
Black holes do not die but they can evaporate.
Why are black holes round?
Black holes are round because they are formed from dead stars and white holes. As you can guess a star is a sphere and that is why black holes are round.
Are black holes fundamental in the universe?
Without an early presence of black holes, it is impossible for galaxies to have formed. No galaxies, no heavy elements near Main Sequence Stars. No such elements near stable stars, no rocky planets that have the time to develop life. No life, no observers. So, black holes are "fundamental" in the sense that a Universe without them would be a Universe without anyone to recognize that there were no black holes!

Are black holes invisable?
Yes and no. It is rather hard to explain, because black holes are so dark and black that no living creature can see them, which in a sense makes them invisible, but you can also see where a black hole is because it sucks in light, too, so that would also, in a sense make it visible, but the my main answer would be, no black holes are not invisible.

If scientists cannot see black holes and do not know for certain that they exist why might studying them be important?
The assumptions are not quite correct.Scientists CAN see black holes. In fact, black holes are among the brightest objects in the Universe. Of course, light can't escape from WITHIN the black hole; rather, what we see is the accretion disk. Also, scientists are PRETTY SURE that black holes are real. As to why it is important: Black holes are fascinating objects by themselves. They also seem to play an important role in galaxy formation.
What were black holes before they turned into black holes?
stellar black holes were stars (these are large)primordial black holes were pieces of the big bang (these are microscopic)
Is the universe made of black holes?
No. It certainly has black holes, but it has other things as well.No. It certainly has black holes, but it has other things as well.No. It certainly has black holes, but it has other things as well.No. It certainly has black holes, but it has other things as well.

How do black holes get into your solar system?
There are no black holes in our solar system
What are the stars called when they become black holes?
They are called "black holes".
