A white dwarf is the remains of an old star, but they still remain very hot and will continue to shine as a white dwarf for many millions of years until they gradually cool off to become black dwarfs. They are very dense.
White dwarf
No it is a small star (about the size of Earth) that is VERY dense and quite hot (although it is not producing new energy).
This describes a white dwarf, which is a small, dense star that remains after a star has exhausted its nuclear fuel and shed its outer layers. White dwarfs emit heat and light as they slowly cool down over billions of years.
A small dead star is typically a white dwarf, which is the leftover core of a star that was not massive enough to become a supernova. White dwarfs are very dense, about the size of Earth but with the mass of a star.
A black dwarf is a theoretical end-stage of a white dwarf star in the far future, after it has cooled down and no longer emits light. White dwarfs are hot, dense remnants of low to medium mass stars at the end of their evolution.
A cooled white dwarf is a black dwarf. I think you are thinking of a neutron star which has nothing to do with a white dwarf.
White dwarf
A white dwarf is much larger than a neutron star.

Once a medium sized star has consumed all it's fuel it becomes a White Dwarf star (just the extremely dense core of the original star remains composed mainly of carbon). A White Dwarf star will, however, eventually lose it's heat to become a Black Dwarf.
No it is a small star (about the size of Earth) that is VERY dense and quite hot (although it is not producing new energy).
No in the life cycle of a star, a white dwarf can cool and become a black dwarf
The obvious reason is that the specific star has bigger density compared with the Sun. For example, that star could be a "white dwarf star". A white dwarf mostly contains "electron degenerate matter", which is very dense. A white dwarf is a small dense star.
