There's a name what happens when this occurs: they are called neutron stars. Only possible with masses several times that of our sun.
Dude. You're not even trying.
No, a neutron star is when the electron gets squashed into the nucleus and likely requires billions of times more pressure than that found in the Earth's core. Here the electrons just get prized off the atom. That's called ionization.
Note, I had to stop myself from correcting this blunder straight away. Only fair to give you, or your RS buddies time to correct it yourself. But none of you noticed.
