There are no neutron stars with 5 solar masses because one if a neutron star exceeds 3 solar masses, the neutrons inside would no longer be able to support the extreme gravity, so the neutron star would then collapse into a black hole.
A neutron star is prevented from further collapse by a force call neutron degeneracy pressure. Above 3 solar masses gravity will overcome this force and the stellar remnant will collapse completely to form a black hole.

What is the order of radius for 1 solar mass white dwarf 1 solar mass star 1.5 solar mass neutron star and 1 solar mass black hole from smallest to largest?

1 solar mass black hole (smallest) 1 solar mass white dwarf 1 solar mass star 1.5 solar mass neutron star (largest)


What determines whether a very massive star will become a neutron?

Whether a star will become a neutron star is determined by its mass. Generally, stars that are more than 8 solar masses (have a mass that is more than 8 times that of our Sun), but are less than 15 solar masses will become neutron stars when they die.


What would happen if more mass was added to a 1.4-solar-mass neutron star?

Adding more mass to a 1.4-solar-mass neutron star could potentially push it beyond the limits of neutron degeneracy pressure, causing it to collapse further. This could result in the formation of a black hole if the mass exceeds the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV) limit for neutron stars.


What is the average density of a neutron star that has the same mass as the sun?

The average density of a neutron star with the same mass as the sun would be about 1 x 10^17 kg/m^3. Neutron stars are incredibly dense objects, as they are formed from the remnants of massive stars that have undergone supernova explosions.


What is the significance of 3 solar masses in a star's fate?

After a high-mass star explodes as supernova and leaves a core behind, the core would become a neutron star or a black hole. If the core is less than 3 solar masses, it would become a neutron star; if the mass exceeds 3 solar masses, the core would continue to collapse, forming a black hole.

What forms from a supernova?

Depending on the mass of the original star it will either end up as a neutron star (< 20 solar masses) or a black hole (> 20 solar masses).
