Meteors are pieces of rock, ice or other debris from outer space that fall into the earth's atmosphere. Meteorites are the remnants of those objects that manage to make it all the way to the earth's surface without burning up.

A mass of rock moving through space is called an asteroid. These rocky objects can range in size from a few meters to several kilometers across and orbit the Sun.
Asteroid: A small rocky body that orbits the Sun in the inner solar system. Meteoroid: A small rocky or metallic body that travels through space. Meteorite: A meteoroid that survives its passage through Earth's atmosphere and lands on the surface.

Asteroid.
It is more likely to pass right through than impact anything as most of the asteroid belt is empty space.
An asteroid is a small, rocky body that travels through space. They are remnants from the formation of the solar system and most of them orbit the Sun in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.

Yes, the word 'asteroid' is a singular, common, concrete noun; a word for a mass of rock that moves through space, a word for a thing.
Usually by another asteroid moving through the belt and hitting one, creating a force to move an asteroid from its orbit. Also, if a large enough asteroid passes by, it is possible that the gravity that it generates could pull a few off.
An asteroid
No. An asteroid can be anything from 10 metres to 487km as in the case of Ceres the largest asteroid.
