Solution 1:[1]

ps -p <pid> -lF

...will give you information about the process like which command started it, time it was started, its state, parent pid, size etc.

If you can tell in more detail as what all information you want to know about process from pid, then we can help you better.

Solution 2:[2]

You can find lots of information in /proc/{PID} directories.
