Any water on Pluto would be frozen as rock hard ice.
Spectroscopic analysis of Pluto's surface reveals the surface to be composed of more than 98 percent nitrogen ice, with traces of methane and carbon. One theory has it that there is a thick layer of water ice beneath the nitrogen ice, but because it is so far out, the composition beneath the surface is currently unknown. Speculation on its composition is based largely on what we know about its size and mass. The estimated density of Pluto suggests that water ice is a significant percentage of its mass.

∙ 12y agothe core of Pluto consists of 30 to 50 percent of ice. if the decaying of radioactive minerals continues,the heating may result in a subsurface ocean layer of liquid water some 100 to 180 km thick at the core mantle boundary.

Can Pluto float in water?
No, Pluto is much denser water. The only planet or similar object less dense than water is Saturn.
Can earths water cover Pluto's surface?
Yes. And the average depth of the water on Pluto would be much, much more than the average few miles here on Earth.
Does Pluto have cold water?
Yes Pluto does have water but most of Pluto's water is frozen solid By, Jordan Jackson
What is the percipitation on Pluto?
No there is no precipitation on Pluto because the freezing cold temperatures any gases or water would be frozen but maybe long ago there was water on Pluto but it has been frozen as Pluto's surface so Pluto is surface layer is ice
How much of Pluto is oxygen?
There is no oxygen and there might be frozen water and rock and nitrogen or just methane gas

Does Pluto have water on its surface?
No, Pluto is too far away from the Sun, meaning if therer was ever water on pluto, it would be ice. as far as I know, there isn't any water on Pluto
Where can anyone buy Pluto water?
You can't buy Pluto water anywhere in the world, but you might be able to find Pluto Water bottles in antique stores.
Is there any proof of water on Pluto?
Yes, there is supposed to be droplets and water vapor on Pluto.
Is there water in Pluto?
no
Does Pluto have lakes?
Pluto has ice on it so there for it is partially water.
Does Pluto have water on it or on its moons?
There is no liquid water on the surface; it is far too cold. Pluto is so cold that even nitrogen freezes. The same goes for its moons.
What forms of water are found on Pluto?
Droplets and small amount of water vapor are found on Pluto's surface.
What is the percipitation on Pluto?
No there is no precipitation on Pluto because the freezing cold temperatures any gases or water would be frozen but maybe long ago there was water on Pluto but it has been frozen as Pluto's surface so Pluto is surface layer is ice
