The Axial tilt of the dwarf planet Ceres is about 3°
The diameter of Ceres is 2,232 miles.
Ceres the largest asteroid
Ceres is less than 5 AU from the sun, an AU being an Astronomical Unit. The equivalent of one AU is 93.000.000 miles, or 149.668.992 kilometers, so about 465.000.000 miles, or 748.344.960 kilometers!
Ceres has a moderately eccentric orbit, which means its distance from the Sun will vary.Aphelion (Furthest) 446,669,320 kilometers (277,547,448 miles) 2.9858 AUPerihelion (Closest) 380,995,855 kilometers (236,739,849 miles) 2.5468 AUSemi major axis (Mean) 413,832,587 kilometers (257,143,648 miles) 2.7663 AUSee related link for more information.

471 kilometers.
The diameter of Ceres is 2,232 miles.
Ceres the largest asteroid
Ceres has an average radius of about 470 kilometers; Earth's radius is about 6371 kilometers.
Yes, Ceres orbits the sun, but at 10% off axis and a slightly more elliptical orbit than normal for planets (It is a dwarf planet). Orbital revolution takes 4.6 years.
The gravitational field at the surface is: For Ceres: 0.28 meters per second squared For Earth: 9.8 meters per second squared
