Question
The mass of a star is two times the mass of the Sun. How it will come to an end?
Solution
The mass of a star which is two times the mass of the sun turns into a neutron star. A neutron star is a type of stellar remnant that can result from the gravitational collapse of a massive star during a Type II, Type Ib or Type lc supernova event. Such stars are composed almost entirely of neutrons, which are subatomic particles without electrical charge and with slightly larger mass than protons.
