Why mass is so important in determining the evolution of a star?
Hydrogen, helium, and carbon fuel are found in more massive stars. The diameter of more massive stars is bigger. Helium is found in greater abundance in more massive stars. The weight of more massive stars is greater.
Do low mass main sequence stars become red super giants?
No. Only massive stars can become supergiants.
Is the color at the star related to its size?
Generally, yes. For stars on the main sequence, meaning that they fuse hydrogen at their cores, mass, size, color, brightness, and temperature are all closely related. More massive stars are larger, brighter and hotter than less massive ones. The least massive stars are red. As you go to more massive stars color changes to orange, then yellow, then white, and finally to blue for the most massive stars.
Does a star turn into a white dwarf at the end of its life cycle?
Stars with a low to medium mass will become white dwarfs. Massive stars will become neutron stars or black holes.
Medium size stars become black holes true or false?
False. Medium-sized stars become white dwarfs. Only the most massive stars form black holes.
What forms massive stars?
Stars are made mostly from hydrogen. The more hydrogen available when a star is formed, the more massive it will be.
Do massive stars become neutron stars?
Some massive stars will become neutron stars. When massive stars die they will either become neutron stars or black holes depending on how much mass is left behind.
Why do massive stars have shorter lives than others stars do?
Massive Stars Use Their Hydrogen Much Faster Than Stars Like The Sun Do.

How does an atom become a star?
By going to hollywood. Stars are made up of helium and hydrogen mostly. The planet Jupiter is made out of the same stuff as stars. If you were to add more hydrogen and helium to Jupiter, it would become a star. There is a point where it gets so massive that it causes nuclear fission and that ignites the gases.
How are super-Giants are formed?
Supergiants develop when massive main-sequence stars run out of hydrogen in their cores. They then start to expand, just like lower-mass stars, but unlike lower-mass stars, they begin to fuse helium in the core almost immediately.
Do low mass main sequence stars become red super giants?
No. Only massive stars can become supergiants.
Are stars with the most hydrogen for nuclear fuel have the longest lives?
No, stars with the most hydrogen have the shortest lives. The more massive a star is, the faster it burns its fuel, and the sooner the core is depleted.
When do stars become red giants?
Stars become Red Giants when the main sequence ends in a star which can be different periods of time depend on if it is a high-massive star or a low-massive star. :)

Which stars primarily end up as black holes?
The most massive stars become black holes.
Do medium size stars become black holes true or false?
False. Only the most massive stars will become black holes.
