Pluto is a dwarf planet located in the Kuiper Belt while gas planets (like Jupiter, Saturn) are made primarily of hydrogen and helium. Gas planets are much larger in size and have thick atmospheres, while Pluto is smaller and composed mostly of rock and ice. Additionally, gas planets have rings and numerous moons, whereas Pluto has only five moons and no rings.
