Question

what is the correct order of star colors from hottest to coolest? white, yellow, red, blue yellow, orange, white, red red, orange, yellow, blue - white blue, white, yellow - white, orange

Explanation:

Star temperature correlates with color via black-body radiation: hotter stars emit shorter-wavelength (bluer) light, while cooler stars emit longer-wavelength (redder) light. The correct hottest-to-coolest sequence matches blue (hottest), white, yellow-white, then orange (cooler than the prior options).

Answer:

blue, white, yellow-white, orange
