Neutron stars do not have fuel. A neutron star is a remnant of a star that has already died.

When a neutron star runs out of fuel what does it become?

A neutron star is already the remains of a massive star that has run out of fuel.


What will happen if the sun will lost its fuel?

After the sun runs out of fuel is will become a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole.


What happens when a high mass star exhausts its fuel?

It will probably explode as a supernova, leaving either a neutron star or black hole.

What happens when the gravity of a massive star is ablle to overcome neutron degeneration?

When the gravity of a neutron star overcomes the degeneracy pressure of the neutrons, the neutron star collapses into a black hole.


How the black hole make?

A black hole is the result of the gravitational collapse of a massive star. This happens when the star runs out of fuel.


Where do neutron stars form?

Neutron stars could form in places where there are high-mass stars. After the star runs out of fuel in its core, the core collapses while the shell explodes into the space as supernova. The core would then become a neutron star, it might also become a black hole if it is massive enough.


Describe what happens to a small star a medium star and a giant star when each runs out of fuel?

While it has fuel, the radiation will produce pressure, that keeps the star inflated. When it runs out of fuel, it will collapse into a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole - depending on how much mass is left in the star.


How do neutron stars form?

When a medium-size star runs out of fuel (hydrogen to fuse into helium), it will collapse on itself. It has a large enough mass that it can push past the resistance from electron degeneracy pressure. When it collapses more, it will get stopped by neutron degeneracy pressure. It will settle at a star that is about 20 kilometers in diameter. The star fuses protons with electrons, and these form neutrons to make a kind of "neutron soup".


How do black holes happen?

It happens when a star 8 times bigger than the sun(if the star is bigger it uses up more fuel/hydrogen)starts to run out of fuel and turns helium into heavier elements and when it finally reaches iron it collapses and turn into a neutron star, then a black hole.
