Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mass of a star determines its ultimate fate. A star with low mass (less than about 0.5 times the mass of the Sun) will become a white dwarf at the end of its life, while a star with high mass (greater than about 8 times the mass of the Sun) will explode in a supernova and leave behind either a neutron star or a black hole. The speed through space, oxygen and uranium content, and anti-matter content do not have a significant impact on a star's ultimate fate.
