no unlike white dwarfs it has only been round a few billion years, it has a long way to go yet
A White Dwarf is a 13 billion year old star, and at the end of its life cycle, our Sun is around 4 billion years old.

Yes, far smaller. A red dwarf is a whole star in and of itself. A white dwarf is the collapsed remnant of the core of a low-to medium mass star. A white dwarf may be about the size of Earth.
The surface gravity of a white dwarf star with the mass of our Sun and the size of our Moon would be extremely high, much greater than what we experience on Earth. This is because gravity is directly proportional to the mass of the object. The intense gravity on the surface of such a white dwarf would crush any normal matter that comes into contact with it.
Such a white dwarf could not exist. Above 1.4 solar masses a white dwarf will collapse to form a neutron star.
No, the sun will eventually evolve into a red giant before shedding its outer layers and becoming a white dwarf. The white dwarf stage marks the end of its evolution, where it will slowly cool down over billions of years.
Yes. The white dwarf would be a bit bigger than the Earth.
A white dwarf has the approximate diameter of a moon, or a small planet.
A white dwarf could be smaller or bigger than the moon since it's size varies depending on the mass of the white dwarf. Since the mass of the moon is 7.347 x 1022 kg and the mass of Pluto is 1.31×1022 kg the size of a white dwarf is also smaller or bigger than Pluto depending on it's mass.

A white dwarf could not become a red dwarf. A white dwarf is a remnant of a dead star. A red dwarf is a star with a very low mass.
No in the life cycle of a star, a white dwarf can cool and become a black dwarf
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.
Pluto is the dwarf planet that is smaller than the Earth's moon.

No a white dwarf is a small compact star.
That might be a white dwarf.
No. A white dwarf is a remnant of a dead star.
