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.
High mass.
A low mass star will become a white dwarf star, eventually this will cool to become a black dwarf. A high mass star (at least 8 times the mass of our Sun) will form a neutron star or a black hole, after a supernova event.
Altair is classified as an A-type main-sequence star, which means it is relatively high-mass compared to other stars like the Sun. Its mass is estimated to be about 1.8 times that of the Sun.
The sun is a low mass sequence star. It is classified as a G-type main-sequence star, which means it is in the middle of its stellar evolution and will remain stable for billions of years.

Depends on the mass. Stars can come in many different colors, and no color at all -> if the mass is high enough, the star is considered a black hole, where the mass generates so much gravitational force that nothing, not even light, can escape.
High mass.
A high mass star will leave behind either a neutron star of a black hole.
High mass.
no the sun is a medium mass star.
It can't. A blue star is a high-mass star. A yellow star has a medium mass.
no the sun is a medium mass star.
A low mass star typically appears red in color due to its cooler surface temperature. This type of star is classified as a red dwarf and emits a reddish light compared to higher mass stars.
A low mass star will become a white dwarf star, eventually this will cool to become a black dwarf. A high mass star (at least 8 times the mass of our Sun) will form a neutron star or a black hole, after a supernova event.
white dwarf
No. It is a typical star of the main sequence for its mass. The composition and mass of each star determines its color, size, and life cycle.
