No, there are no green stars, because the color of a star is more or less given by a black-body spectrum and this never looks green. The sun is a yellow star at about 5778 K surface temperature.

In astronomy, a so called "green star" is a white star (7500 K to 10000 K), blue white star (10000 K to 30000 K) or blue star (>30000 K) that appears green due to an optical illusion.

Why, if the sun is a "green star," does it not appear green in the daytime sky?

The sun is not actually a green star; it is classified as a yellow dwarf star. The perception of the sun as white or yellow in the sky is due to its light being a combination of different colors, which appear white when mixed together. The Earth's atmosphere scatters the sunlight, making it appear white to us.

What is the solar mass of a green star?

There is no such thing as a green star. I think there are some, but they are uncommon. Actually, the peak output in the spectrum of our Sun is at green or yellow-green wavelengths. However it doesn't look green because we see all the wavelengths together. The result is that the Sun appears white (more or less) apart from atmospheric effects which can make it look red. (Don't look directly at the Sun, of course.) As regards the mass of a green star, I suppose that would vary. It depends on the particular star, just as with blue stars or yellow stars or red stars.
