Pluto is a dwarf planet that is supposed to be no longer a planet (It is still considered a planet because of its history in the solar system. Some astronomers want to prove that Pluto is still a planet even though it is more likely known as an asteroid). It is the planet farthest from the sun.

Pluto is believed to have a rocky core covered with water and methane ice. It's rather high albedo gives further credence to the possibility of the surface being ice (ice is fairly reflective).

Pluto is now a dwarf planet,it does not belong to the category of a planet.This is becoz Pluto does not confirm to the recognised elliptical path while going arpund sun.Besides it is only about 20 times as massive as Orcus near it which has a similar orbit.

No. I would classify Pluto as a dwarf planet, which is another name for a very large ball-shaped asteroid.
