A high mass star will eventually undergo a supernova explosion, leaving behind a dense core known as a neutron star or collapsing further into a black hole. This explosive event disperses heavy elements into space, enriching the interstellar medium for future star formation.

Low mass stars will become a when they die. A high mass star will end up as a or a?

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.

What is the main factor that shapes the life and death of a star?

The main factor that shapes the life and death of a star is its mass. The more massive the star, the faster it burns through its fuel and the faster it evolves. The mass of a star determines its temperature, luminosity, and eventual fate, such as whether it will end as a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole.


What will a high mass protostar turn into?

A high mass protostar will eventually evolve into a massive star like a red supergiant, followed by a supernova explosion. After the supernova event, the remnants may form a neutron star or a black hole.


Is the sun a low mass or high mass star and which stage is it in?

The Sun is a medium mass star in main sequence.
