Q. Theoretically the end of stars having mass less than 1.44 times the mass of the Sun will be in the form of?
Solution:
A white dwarf star is in balance between gravity and degeneracy pressure, but if the mass is too large (greater than 1.4 solar masses, called the Chandrasekhar limit), the degeneracy pressure is not adequate to hold up the star, and the star collapses. The white dwarf then collapses.
A black dwarf is a theoretical stellar remnant, specifically a white dwarf that has cooled sufficiently that it no longer emits significant heat or light.
