13. Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.
Supernova explosion
The average temperature of the surface of the Sun is 5778K. In the core
of the Sun energy is produced by nuclear fusion. Once the Sun has used all
its nuclear fuel it will collapse to form a white dwarf.
A star with a mass much larger than that of the Sun will end its life in an
enormous explosion called a supernova. The energy released in a
supernova explosion is more than a hundred times the energy that the
Sun will radiate over its entire 10 billion year lifetime.
In our galaxy, the star Betelgeuse is predicted to explode in a supernova.
Betelgeuse has a mass of around 8 times the mass of the Sun. Even though
Betelgeuse is 640 light-years from Earth, the supernova will be as bright
as a full moon at night in our sky.
