The largest stars end their lives as black holes. These are regions in space with incredibly strong gravitational forces that can trap even light.
Yes, massive blue stars can eventually collapse and form black holes at the end of their lives. When a blue star exhausts its nuclear fuel, it undergoes a supernova explosion and if the remaining core is massive enough, it can collapse into a black hole due to gravitational forces.
The most massive stars will end up as black holes. Those are the stars that have more than approximately 3 solar masses at the end of their life - i.e., AFTER the supernova explosion.
The most massive stars will die as black holes.
Less massive stars end up as white dwarfs. More massive stars end up as a supernova or a neutron star or for the really massive stars...as a black hole. As a star ends its time in the main sequence it either becomes a Red Giant and end its life as a White Dwarf or becomes a White Super Giant and ends its life in an explosion (supernova) and if it's really dense it becomes a neutron star or a black hole as mentioned above.
No, all a black dwarf is is a white dwarf that has cooled, it's mostly carbon and oxygen and nitrogen. A black hole forms when the gravity of a collapsing star is able to overcome all opposing forces.
No, but some stars can end their lives by becoming a black hole.
False. Medium-sized stars become white dwarfs. Only the most massive stars form black holes.
The most massive stars become black holes.

Very large ones.
The type of star an object will evolve into depends on its initial mass. For example, a star like our Sun will eventually become a red giant and then a white dwarf. More massive stars will end their lives as supernovae, neutron stars, or black holes.

Smaller stars do collapse at the end of their lives. Bigger stars die in titanic supernova explosions. The cores of the stars are crushed into neutron stars or black holes, while most of the mass of the star is blown completely away from the star into a nebula. Billions of years later, some of that nebula material may form planets around new star systems, just as has happened to the Earth.

They are not. A supernova is an explosion of a star. Blue stars usually end their lives in such explosions.
