A lot of things, actually. The term 'black hole' is applied to an object whose gravitation pull is sufficiently great to prevent light from escaping. Because the magnitude of the gravitational force that one body exerts upon another is, partly, a function of the distance separating the two bodies, black holes can exist at a variety of sizes. There is, for example, a class of black holes known as 'Micro black holes.' These are objects with a radius smaller than 0.1mm (or 100 micrometers, hence the name), with a mass up to that of the Moon. Another class of black holes, called 'Stellar black holes', can have a mass up to that of the Sun, and a radius of up to 30km.
The object swallowed by the black hole is destroyed; its mass is added to the mass of the black hole.
The relationship between the mass of a black hole and its density is that as the mass of a black hole increases, its density also increases. This means that a black hole with a higher mass will have a higher density compared to a black hole with a lower mass.
As far as we know, black holes cannot collapse any further. However, if a star were to collapse and form a black hole, its mass would be the same.
Yes. Intermediate-mass blackhole is a medium size black hole. Scientists have found stellar black holes and supermassive black holes but there is no prove that Intermediate-mass black type of black holes exist. My opinion is that they do exist because when a black hole is becoming a black hole supermassiveblack hole it will need to go though this stage of intermediate-mass black hole.
A black hole with the same mass as our Sun (1 solar mass) would be considered a stellar-mass black hole. These black holes form from the remnants of massive stars that have gone supernova. Their size and gravitational effects are determined by their mass and not their color, as they are truly black and do not emit light.
The mass of a black hole can be measured by observing the orbits of objects around it, such as stars or gas clouds. By studying the gravitational effects of the black hole on these objects, astronomers can calculate its mass. Another method is to measure the distortion of light from objects behind the black hole, known as gravitational lensing, which can provide information about the black hole's mass.
No. The sun does not have enough mass to form a black hole. A black hole does not lead to another galaxy. Anything pulled into a black hole becomes part of that black hole's mass. Even then, if Earth were to fall into a black hole the same mass as the sun it would be torn apart by tidal forces long before it crossed the event horizon.

That would depend a lot on the mass of the black hole. For example, a stellar-size black hole, say, 5 times the mass of the Sun, would of course have the same gravitational attraction as a star that has 5 times the mass of the Sun. But there are larger black holes, too - those at the center of galaxies have masses millions, or even billions, times the mass of our Sun.That would depend a lot on the mass of the black hole.

First of all, every black hole has the same size ... its length, width, height, radius, depth, diameter, area, and volume are all zero. What varies from one black hole to another is their mass. Next, black holes don't reach out and grab things that happen to be passing by. Outside of the hole's "event horizon" it has the same influence as any other object with the same mass. Other bodies that pass a black hole at a distance at which they're moving slower than escape velocity will settle into orbit around the hole.
No, a black hole definitely does not have infinite mass. In some mathematical models, there is an object called a singularity, inside a black hole, which has infinite density. That is not the same as infinite mass. If a finite mass is contained in zero volume, then the density becomes infinite. We do not have any real confirmation that such a thing as a singularity or an infinite density actually exist, but they may.
