Best Answer

Pluto's radius is about 1150 km (less than one-fifth the size of Earth)

Its surface area is about 1.665 ×107 km² (only about 3% of Earth's).

Volume - 7.15×109 km3 ( 0.0066 Earths)

Mass - 1.305 x 1022 kg ( 0.0021 Earths)

Compared to Earth's Moon, Pluto and Charon (its co-orbiting moon) are both smaller : Pluto about 2/3 of the Moon's diameter and Charon only 1/3.
