ANSWER:

Solution 11QQ:

Step 1 of 3:-

In this problem, we have to explain which of the given star will have the longest life time.

We know that, the more massive a star is, the more energy it releases in order to avoid gravitational collapsing.

The released energy increases it’s temperature which don’t allow the star to collapse under it’s own gravity.
