The normal mnemonic: Oh Be a Fine Girl and Kiss Me - runs from hottest to coldest
O 30k-60k Blue
B 10k-30k Blue
A 7500-10k White
F 6000-7500 Yellow/White
G 5000-6000 Yellow (like Sol)
K 3500-5000 Orange
M 2000-3500 Red
So reverse it to get coldest to hottest
M - K - G - F - A - B - O, Red/Orange/Yellow/White-Yellow/White/Blue/Blue

What else can I help you with?
The color of a star is a clue to its what?
The color of a star is a clue to its temperature. Hotter stars tend to be blue or white, while cooler stars appear red. This is because the wavelength of light emitted by a star changes with temperature, leading to different colors.
What does the temperature and brightness of star indicate?
Its temperature, its mass, and its luminosity. Its size, nor distance have nothing to do with the colour of a star, bar maybe diffusion through additional materials when viewed from Earth.
What color is the second hottest star?
The second hottest star would typically appear blue in color. Stars emit different colors based on their temperature, with blue indicating a very high temperature.
What are the five possible colors of a star?
The five possible colors of a star are blue, white, yellow, orange, and red. These colors correspond to different temperature ranges of stars, with blue being the hottest and red being the coolest.
What color of the massive star?
Massive stars can appear in a range of colors depending on their surface temperature. They can range from blue (hottest) to white, yellow, orange, and red (coolest). The color of a massive star can provide clues about its temperature and stage of life.
What makes stars colors different?
A star's color is determined by its surface temperature. This temperature is largely dependent on the star's initial mass.
Why are stars differ in colors?
The color depends on the star's temperature. For example, a blue star is hotter than a red star.
How do stars get their colors?
The Color of stars depends upon their surface temperature.
How do colors tell you about the temperature of a star?
The colder a star is the longer the light waves it emits. Light wavelength is what we perceive as color.

What are the different colors of stars and what do they mean?
Different colors of stars "usually" means different temperatures. I don't remember the temperature that each color corresponds with, but when stars are different colors it is usually due to their temperature.
What color is the second hottest star?
The second hottest star would typically appear blue in color. Stars emit different colors based on their temperature, with blue indicating a very high temperature.
What are the five possible colors of a star?
The five possible colors of a star are blue, white, yellow, orange, and red. These colors correspond to different temperature ranges of stars, with blue being the hottest and red being the coolest.
Does a star colors depends on core temperature?
actually, it depends on the color of it's chromosphere. as you get deeper into a star, it may change color due to it's temperature, but what you see on the outside would be a different color. The chromosphere would hide the inner core of the star.
What instrument do the astronomers use to determine the chemical composition of a star?
They use a spectrograph to pass light through a prism to break it the light waves into its constituent colors. Then by looking at what colors are missing they can determine both the temperature and composition of the star.
What causes different colors?
A star's color is caused by the type of gases its made up of and the temperature. The temperature changes depeding on the age of the star. Older stars turn red due to the amount of space it has to heat up.
