Why is iron sulfur mixture magnetic?
I believe this is because iron is a metal and metals are magnetic.
What mineral is made by sulfur and iron and is also a mixture?
Pyrite is made of iron and sulfur and is the compound iron sulfide with the chemical formula FeS2. It is not a mixture of iron and sulfur. The iron and sulfur are chemically combined to form a compound.
What are some differences between iron and sulfur?
Iron is silver while sulfur is yellow, Iron is magnetic while sulfur is not, and Iron looks like dirt and sulfur looks like yellow powdered sugar
How could a student use a magnet to indicate that combining iron an sulfur to produce the mixture of iron and sulfur is a physical change?
A mixture of iron and sulfur can be separated using a magnet- the iron will be attracted to the magnet, sulfur will not. Not the that the iron could be coated with sulfur powder so an extra step is required to remove it.
Iron sulfide is an example of what?
It is an example of an alloy. Mild steel or high carbon steel can be formed using different metals such as mainly iron and carbon. Other metals can be added such as nickel and chromium to form stainless steel.
Five reasons why iron is a metal while sulfur is a non metal?
1. Iron is lustrous, while sulfur is not. Luster is a property of metals. 2. Iron conducts electricity, while sulfur does not. Electrical conductivity is a property of metals. 3. Iron conducts heat, while sulfur does not. Heat conductivity is a property of metals. 4. Iron is malleable, while sulfur is not. Malleability is a property of metals. 5. Iron is somewhat ductile, while sulfur is not. Ductility is a property of metals.
Why is iron sulfur mixture magnetic?

Why iron is a metal and sulfur nis a non metal?
if u have studied about metals and non metals then u must be knowing that it is because of the difference in the properties of metals and non metals.

What elements are found in iron sulfate?
Iron sulfates contain iron, sulfur and oxygen.
What are some differences between iron and sulfur?

What is metal and not metal?
Metals are iron, platinum, beryllium, uranium, sodium etc. Nonmetals are sulfur, oxygen, neon, carbon, chlorine etc.
What is a mxture of iron fillings and sulfur will make the iron and sulfur atoms combine chemically?
iron sulfide
How do you write a balanced equation for the reaction of sulfur with the following metals to form solids that you can take to be ionic when the anion is S2?
Metals: potassium, magnesium, aluminum, calcium, iron (forming Fe2+ ions)

What happens to the particles in a reaction between Iron and sulfur you have to make a poster?
Write Up; `A reaction between Iron and Sulfur.' * Then identify which of the substances are solids, liquids or gases. * State whether iron and sulfur are metals or non-metals. * State how you knew a reaction had happened. * Describe it's appearance. * Try and use symbols from the periodic table. Try and get all those in the poster but make sure you get the correct answers! And also go onto youtube and type in, `RuGiist' and watch her videos :)
Is iron more reactive than sulfur?
Yes, iron is more reactive than calcium as iron is a metal and generally metals are more reactive than non-metals and calcium is a non-metal.
