What is made when stars die?
There are three types of stellar remnants. Low to medium mass stars will become white dwarfs. High mass stars will become neutron stars. Very high mass stars will become black holes.
What do stars that have ejected a planetary nebula eventually become?
Stars that have ejected a planetary nebula eventually become white dwarfs. These are core remnants of low to medium mass stars that have exhausted their nuclear fuel. White dwarfs gradually cool down over billions of years to become black dwarfs.
Does a star turn into a white dwarf at the end of its life cycle?
Yes, a star of low to medium mass, like the sun, will eventually turn into a white dwarf at the end of its life cycle. This occurs after the star has exhausted its nuclear fuel and shed its outer layers.
What is the difference between stars that become white dwarfs stars that become neutron stars and stars that become black holes?
The difference is in mass. Low to medium mass stars (up to about 8-10 solar masses) become white dwarfs. Massive stars (10 to 25 solar masses) become neutron stars. Stars above 25 solar masses tend to become black holes.
What happens to low-mass and medium-mass stars when they run out of fuel?
Low-mass stars like our Sun will expand into a red giant and eventually shed their outer layers to form a planetary nebula, leaving behind a hot core known as a white dwarf. Medium-mass stars will go through similar stages but can also undergo a supernova explosion, leaving behind a dense core called a neutron star.
Low-mass and medium-mass stars eventually?
Low and medium sized stars will end up as white dwarfs.
Do low mass and medium mass stars eventually become neutron stars?
No, low mass stars do not become neutron stars. Low mass stars like the Sun end their lives as white dwarfs. Medium mass stars can evolve into neutron stars, but they must first go through the supernova stage to shed their outer layers and leave behind a dense core of neutrons.

Stars that have ejected a planetary nebula eventually become white dwarfs. These are core remnants of low to medium mass stars that have exhausted their nuclear fuel. White dwarfs gradually cool down over billions of years to become black dwarfs.
Do medium size stars become black holes?
No. They do not have enough mass to become black holes. Depending on the mass they will either become white dwarfs or neutron stars.
Does a star turn into a white dwarf at the end of its life cycle?
Yes, a star of low to medium mass, like the sun, will eventually turn into a white dwarf at the end of its life cycle. This occurs after the star has exhausted its nuclear fuel and shed its outer layers.
What kind of stars become black holes low mass or medium mass or high mass?
High-mass stars might become black holes, if the remaining matter (after the supernova explosion) is sufficiently large.
Why do stars not become red giants?
Most medium mass stars such as our Sun DO become red giants. Smaller stars do not have enough mass to initiate helium fusion when the hydrogen supply begins to run low, and do not become red giants.
What is the difference between stars that become white dwarfs stars that become neutron stars and stars that become black holes?
The difference is in mass. Low to medium mass stars (up to about 8-10 solar masses) become white dwarfs. Massive stars (10 to 25 solar masses) become neutron stars. Stars above 25 solar masses tend to become black holes.
What is a low- meduim- mass star the becomes the end of its life?
A low to medium-mass star eventually evolves into a red giant as it runs out of fuel in its core. After shedding its outer layers, the star will collapse into a white dwarf, which is the end stage of its life cycle.
What happens to low-mass and medium-mass stars when they run out of fuel?
Low-mass stars like our Sun will expand into a red giant and eventually shed their outer layers to form a planetary nebula, leaving behind a hot core known as a white dwarf. Medium-mass stars will go through similar stages but can also undergo a supernova explosion, leaving behind a dense core called a neutron star.
Why do some stars become white dwarfs and others become neutron stars and black holes?
Actually if a star is medium or low mass is will run out of fuel and turn into a red giant, once the stars atmosphere slowly drifts away and the core is remaining it will eventually become a white dwarf For more massive stars it will turn in to a super giant the will cause a supernova, after the supernova the star can either a black hole or a neutron star
