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.

Is the color of a star related to its size why or why not?
Yes, the color of a star is related to its size, primarily due to its temperature. Larger stars tend to be hotter and emit more energy, resulting in a blue or white appearance. In contrast, smaller stars are cooler and appear red or orange. This relationship is described by the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, which illustrates how a star's color correlates with its temperature and size.
What is the color of a star most closely related to its?
The color of a star is closely related to its temperature. Cooler stars appear reddish in color, while hotter stars appear blue. This is due to the relationship between temperature and the peak wavelength of light emitted by the star.
What brightness color of star?
The brightness and color of a star are related to its temperature and size. Hotter stars appear blue or white and are brighter, while cooler stars appear red or orange and are dimmer. The brightness of a star can also vary based on its distance from Earth.
What does color have to do with a star's mass?
The color of a star is mainly related to the star's surface temperature. This is only remotely related to the star's mass; for example, high-mass stars can either be very hot (blue) or not-so-hot (red), depending on the phase in the star's life.
