OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thats why I THOUGHT

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When a low mass star eventually runs out of fuel, it will collapse in on itself and form a white dwarf star, which will gradually turn into a black dwarf as it cools.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A low mass star will burn very slowly for a very long time, maybe hundreds of billions of years at a cool red temperature. It will eventually run out of fuel, nuclear fusion will cease and it will contract to become a hotter White dwarf star, which will eventually become a black dwarf star as it cools.
