What will form is a neutron star or a black hole.
(Strictly speaking, it's a red supergiant that becomes a supernova.)

Can supernova be a red giant?
A red giant can become a supernova.
Will our sun become a red giant then will it become a supernova then a black hole?
No, our sun is not destined to become a supernova and/or a black hole. It will become a red giant, but it is not massive enough to cross the threshold and become a candidate for a fate like either of those last two.
The explosion of a very massive star is called what?
well what you gotta do is go home a smoke weed
Fusion reactions in red super giants and supernovae create what?
Different things. A red giant fuses helium, whereas a supernova catastrophically explodes. There is no similarity.
What is the correct order of a life cycle of a star?
At the beggining, a star starts out as a nebula. This nebula's gas condenses to form the sun. This sun is called a protostar. When all of the hydrogen is used up in nuclear fusion to produce helium, the star begins to grow and gets to a stage known as the red giant stage. At this point, depending on the size of the star at this point, it can form differently. It can either become a super giant or a dwarf star. When the red giant become a dwarf star, it had collapsed in onitself after burning all possible fuel. It will continue to glow until it reaches its final phase as a black dwarf, which doesn't produce any light and is in a dormant phase. If the red giant becomes a super giant, then it will continue to grow until it burns off all of its fuel and collapses in on itself, where it then explodes into a supernova. If this supernova condenses to quickly, it will form a black hole.
Can supernova be a red giant?
A red giant can become a supernova.
What is the order from smallest to largest sun supernova red giant white dwarf?
White Dwarf, Sun, Red Giant, Supernova
What is the explosion of a red giant called?
The explosion of a red giant is called a supernova. It would be quite spectacular to watch! I hope this answer helps :D Technically the explosion of a Red giant is not called a Supernova as the mass of the star is not great enough. However the explosion from a Red Super Giant can be called a supernova. A normal Red giant doesn't actually explode, the core just collapses again to cause a white dwarf and the outer layers are ejected to form planetary Nebulae.
What is the gigantic explosion of a red giant called?

Bright object formed after the explosion of a red giant?
supernova
What is the explosoin of a red giant star?
A supernova. See related question.
When will the sun exploed?
No, the Sun doesn't have enough mass to Supernova, it will become a Red Giant over 5 billion years then slowly form into a Nebula.
What is the last element a red super giant produces before a supernova explosion?
It is iron.
When a main-sequence star has exhausted the fuel in its core it becomes a....?
I am pretty sure it becomes a giant if I'm not mistaken.

Will a red giant star end as a supernova?
Not exactly. Red giants become white dwarf stars. It is the red supergiants that can become supernovas.
