it depends on how large the nebulae is. The largest of nebulae (in both distance and height) form the largest number of stars while the smallest of nebulae (in both distance and height) form the least number of stars. Therefore there is no fixed number for the number of stars that can be formed from a single nebulae (a variable amount of stars can be formed from one nebulae)

Where does a star form?
Stars form in a nebulae
How did the star form?
Most stars came from Nebulae.
Where does the nebula get its gas to form stars?
Most of the nebulae that exist now are formed from the expelled remnants of dead stars. The gas that made up the original nebulae form with the Big Bang.
Which heavently bodies form the universe?
Stars, Planets, nebulae, galaxies.
Did gravity form stars?
Yes. Stars form when clouds of gas and dust, called nebulae, collapse under the force of gravity.
Are planetary nebulae sites for planet formation?
No, planetary nebulae are not sites for planet formation. Planetary nebulae are the outer layers of a dying star that have been expelled into space, while new planets form in protoplanetary disks around young stars.
Stars are formed from clouds of dust and gas called?
Stars. That is how stars are formed. They form from nebulae.
How many kinds of Nebula's are there?
*the correct term is nebulae. a nebulae is a could of many gases and dust, where stars are created. TYPES: Diffuse Nebulae- the most common type. it is interstellar, which means among the stars, and not part of any galaxy. Planetary Nebulae- completely unrelated to planets. planetary nebulae is when gas and plasma are formed after certain types of stars die. it sometimes looks like gas planets, like neptune and uranus, hence the name. Reflection Nebulae- clouds of dust that reflect the light of nearby stars, though they are not nebulae, because they do not create stars. Protoplanetary Nebulae- a point in the lifetime of an astronomical object (star). protoplanetary nebulae, or preplanetary nebulae, emit light, much like reflection nebulae Emission Nebulae- a could of ionized gas which emits colorful lights
Why do astronomers study nebulae?
Astronomers study nebulae to better understand the formation and evolution of stars. Nebulae are vast clouds of gas and dust in space where stars are born, and studying them helps astronomers gain insights into the processes that shape the universe. Additionally, nebulae play a crucial role in the chemical enrichment of galaxies by producing heavy elements necessary for life.
Do nebulae create galaxies?
Nebulae do not create galaxies. Nebulae are clouds of gas and dust in space where stars are formed, but galaxies are vast collections of stars, gas, dust, and dark matter held together by gravity. Galaxies can contain many nebulae within them.
The names of the different types of nebulae?
The main types of nebulae are emission nebulae, reflection nebulae, dark nebulae, and planetary nebulae. Emission nebulae glow with their own light, often due to hydrogen gas being ionized by nearby stars. Reflection nebulae reflect light from nearby stars. Dark nebulae are dense clouds of dust that obscure light. Planetary nebulae are the ejected outer layers of dying stars.
Are all nebulae luminous?
Technically, no nebulae are luminous. The ones that appear as such have stars either within or near them, and the nebulae merely reflect the light emitted by these stars.
