A star that becomes a white dwarf simply does not have the mass to become a neutron star. White dwarfs are the the remnants of a star very similar to our own sun in mass, where it takes a much more massive star to create a neutron star, Like the star Betelgeuse is a prime example of a star that does not have the mass to become a black hole but is massive enough to become a neutron star.
the simple reson is mass.......that is if the star under consideration is a heavy one, it is more likely to turn into a black hole and if it is comparatively smaller it is prone to turn into a neutron star or a white dwarf
No, the sun will not become a neutron star. Neutron stars form from the remnants of massive stars that have undergone a supernova explosion. The sun is not massive enough to undergo this process and will instead evolve into a white dwarf.
No. it is not massive enough. When the sun dies it will become a white dwarf.
According to current theories of stellar evolution, because of the Sun's mass and chemistry most likely it will become a white dwarf. It simply lacks the weight to become a neutron star or black hole.
A white dwarf is much larger than a neutron star.
The long-term fate of the sun according to current theories in stellar evolution, is to become a white dwarf. It lacks the mass to further collapse into a neutron star or black hole.
No. It does not have enough mass. Only stars 8 times the mass of the sun or greater can become neutron stars. The sun will become a white dwarf.

Neither. Our Sun will turn into a red giant, and then cool to become a white dwarf.
The difference between the death of a small star and a massive star is what the become afterwards. A small star will typically become a red dwarf while a large star will become a neutron star or a black hole.
Different kinds of stars become different different stuffs......
The other option is a white dwarf.
