No. A black hole can be a very condensed star. It's also possible for "mini" black holes of less than stellar mass to exist. But in no case would it be possible to describe one as an "expanded" star.

What remnant does a supernova leave?

Depending on the mass of the original star, it is either a black hole or a neutron star.


Black holes were once massive stars that used up their?

Black holes can only be created when a super massive star explodes. The star has to be 10x bigger then our sun to make a black hole. When our sun explodes it will just create a white dwarf. When the star runs out of hydrogen and helium it explodes and creates a black hole.

What is the relationship between the words supergiant supernova neutron star and black hole?

They are all astronomical terms for stars or star related.


What is bigger a black hole or a neutron star?

It all relates to what you define as big. A black hole is an infinite region in space with an infinite density. It's "event horizon" is not infinite. If you wish to categorise between size of a neutron star and a black hole's "event horizon", then a black hole is, in most cases larger - but there are micro black holes, which exhibit all the characteristics of a black hole but have a much smaller "event horizon". In the physical sense, everything is bigger than a black hole, but in a terminological sense (the event horizon) it would depend on the mass of the black hole.
