Yellow Dwarfs , also known as G V stars, are a class of main sequence stars with masses of 80% to 100% of the mass of the sun . The sun itself is a Yellow Dwarf star and is the maximum possiable mass for a Yellow Dwarf. Yellow Dwarf stars have a lifespan of about 10 billion years until it expands , leaves the main sequence and becomes a red giant. Eventually the red giant will run out of fuel and colpase into a white dwark, ejecting most of its mass in the process.
