The larger mass a star has the shorter its life span will be because since it is so large, the more nuclear energy it has to create to keep it up and running. So the smaller the star the longer its life span and vise versa. Hope this helped!

The life of a star basically depended on the hydrogen contained with in it. A star burns hydrogen during majority period of its life and convert hydrogen into helium on the main sequence. So the main sequence life time is determined by the mass of the star as mass of hydrogen contained is equivalent to the mass of star and the life time is dependent on the mass of the hydrogen.

Thus, it can be stated that mass of star is directly proportional to its lifetime.

Which picture should I use for supporting that my hypothesis was not supported? And please make a good explanation of the pictur
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

You should probably use the third picture to support that your hypothesis was incorrect.

Explanation:

I do not know what your project was, but it seems as though you were able to gather that the state of matter is liquid throughout the experiemnt using the last picture. If your hypothesis was that the state of matter would change, then the third picture would show that this is wrong, as it remains in a liquid state.
