Which outcome results when exceeding iron's nuclide number in stellar nucleosynthesis?

💡 Explanation

A nuclear fusion beyond iron consumes energy because of the increasing proton number; the endothermic fusion mechanism steals energy from the process. Therefore collapse occurs, rather than radiating excess, because iron has the highest nuclear binding energy per nucleon.
