No. Neutron stars are far MORE DENSE than the Sun's core. If the Sun were twice its actual mass, and if it were to collapse into a ball around 10 miles in diameter, THEN it would be as dense as a neutron star.

Compared to a neutron star, the Sun is like a mist of hydrogen, a sort of fog.

What is the average density of a neutron star that has the same mass as the sun?

The average density of a neutron star with the same mass as the sun would be about 1 x 10^17 kg/m^3. Neutron stars are incredibly dense objects, as they are formed from the remnants of massive stars that have undergone supernova explosions.


Can the sun turn into a neutron star?

No. The Sun is of fairly ordinary mass, and isn't NEARLY big enough to undergo a supernova explosion that would collapse the core to neutron star density. In fact, the minimum mass for a star that will die that way is about 3 times the mass of the Sun.


Why does a neutron star make you so incredibly heavy?

Your weight depends on your mass and the strength of the gravity where you are. A neutron star has a mass 2-3 times that of the sun compacted into a very small area, resulting in a surface gravity billions of times stronger than on Earth. As a result, at the surface of a neutron star you would weigh several billion times what you do now.


Does the sun eventually become a neutron star?

No, the sun will not become a neutron star. Neutron stars form from the remnants of massive stars that have undergone a supernova explosion. The sun is not massive enough to undergo this process and will instead evolve into a white dwarf.


When A neutron star is the densest substance in the universe What does it tell you about its mass and volume?

It means it's mass is very high and its volume is very low. A standard neutron star has a mass thousands of times greater than the sun, but a volume of a small city. This ridiculously high density and pressure also account for the high temperatures of neutron stars. PS. Quark stars are denser than neutron.

What is a good ratio example of an average neutron star to our sun?

A typical neutron star has a diameter of about 24km our Sun has a diameter of 1.392×106 km So our Sun is about 58,000 times bigger than a neutron star.


Is there a neutron star have that is closer to the earth or the sun?

No. The closest neutron star is over 434 light years away.


What object has the largest density known to mankind?

The object with the largest density known to mankind is typically a neutron star. Neutron stars are extremely dense, with a mass greater than the Sun packed into a sphere roughly the size of a city.


Could a neutron star be bigger than the sun?

No. While a neutron star has more mass than the sun, it is compressed into a very small area about the size of a city.

Which is the object having the highest density?

The object with the highest density is typically considered to be a neutron star. Neutron stars are extremely dense, with the mass of about 1.4 times that of the Sun packed into a sphere only about 10 kilometers in diameter, resulting in densities of over 4x10^17 kg/m^3.


Will our sun end up like a neutron star?

No, our sun is not massive enough to become a neutron star. When our sun runs out of fuel, it will shed its outer layers and become a planetary nebula, leaving behind a dense core called a white dwarf.

What is the diameter in km of the dwarf star?

There are many types of Dwarf stars - all with different diameters. Our Sun is a dwarf star! A typical neutron star has a diameter of about 24km our Sun has a diameter of 1.392×106 km So our Sun is about 58,000 times bigger than a neutron star.
