Is your sun a supernova or a white dwarf?

The sun is neither a supernova nor a white dwarf. The sun is a main sequence star. A supernova is not a kind of star: it is the explosion of a massive star.


How does the sun compare with the average star?

The sun is an average star - and kind of the lower range of average at that. Among stars as a whole, our Sun is "a face in the crowd".


How do you know what star becomes when it dies?

You will know what a star becomes when it dies based off of its mass. If the mass of the star is less than, around, or slightly greater than the sun's mass, it will become a white dwarf. If the mass of the star is a few solar masses, a supernova will happen and a neutron star will be created. If the mass of the star is many times that of the sun, it will explode in a giant supernova called a hypernova and create a black hole.


What circumstance will a star become a black hole?

Generally, a black hole will be created when a star 3x (or higher) more massive than our Sun dies, it becomes a black hole. It can vary based on the environment around it and the very materials making up the star as it dies.
