No. Gold is not magnetic.
I heard that if you use a magnet and it's attracted strongly to the metal then is's not real gold?
Gold is actually slightly repelled by a magnet, due to an effect called diamagnetism. Water, carbon, and bismuth are also repelled. Holding a strong magnet next to a thin stream of water shows this. A thin stream of molten gold would show the same effect.
No. Gold is not a magnetic substance.Well ... I guess if the sample is attracted to a magnet, then you've discovered that the sample is definitely not gold. That proof oughta be worth something.
The short answer is no. Real 9K or more gold is not magnetic, nor is silver. If you find that ur ring or necklace is sticking to a magnet it is plated and is not real.
Metals and other magnets are the only objects that are attracted to magnets. However, many metals are NOT attracted to magnets. Copper, stainless steel, brass, gold, silver, zinc, and aluminum are a few metals that are NOT attracted to magnets. The best way to discover if the object will be attracted to a magnet is to introduce it to a magnet.
Hi,No. gold is not attracted by magnet.Regards
No, gold is not magnetic.
Gold is non-ferrous and therefore is not attracted by a magnet. There are other metal that are attracted by a magnet but gold is not one of them. You can tell what is a ferrous metal and what is a non ferrous one but you cannot identify gold.
No because it is an inert substance.
Gold Copper Brass Aluminum
Nickel is the only element among those listed that's attracted to a magnet.

You can tell if a ring is real gold or not by putting it near a magnet. If the ring is attracted to the magnet it is not real gold, real gold is not magnetic at all.
