If a star dies what happens?

it depends on the mass. If the star is small and it dies then it will turn into a red giant then a white dwarf. But if the star has enough mass and is bigger than any other star then it will collapse and turn into a black hole.

Is a neutron star or a black hole bigger?

A black hole has more mass than a neutron star, but if you are comparing volume it would depend on the mass of the black hole. A neutron star is estimated to be about 14 miles in diameter, which is larger than the event horizon of a black hole up to about 3.8 times the mass of the sun. A more massive black hole will be larger.


How does a star turn into a red giant?

A star turns into a red giant when it lose fuel and die. If a star isn't a massive star then it expands into a red giant. After that it becomes a white dwarf. If its massive then it collapses on itself and turns into a black hole.
