No . It doesn't. Loser.
Yes..
You can't use a magnet to determine if something IS gold. However, if the specimen reacts to the magnet is is certainly NOT gold.
Yes because if the piece of jewelery were real, then the magnet will work and the piece of jewelery will be attached to the magnet. So yes.
A magnet will tell you if a metal is magnetic - Gold is NOT magnetic, so if a ring 'sticks' to a magnet it is NOT gold.
I heard that if you use a magnet and it's attracted strongly to the metal then is's not real gold?
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.

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.

Jewelers will use a couple of techniques to find if an item is real gold. The most reliable is a scratch test, they rub the item on a special block that reveals if it is genuine. The easiest way to tell is to put a strong magnet over it. Real gold is not magnetic at all. If there are fillers present it will stick to the magnet, or you will feel it pull towards the magnet.

There are several ways to tell if you have real gold. The first way would be to see if it is magnetic because real gold will not stick to a magnet. Another way to tell is to look up what the dimensions of your gold piece should be and compare it to your own because gold tends to be very uniform in coins, and bars.
Well, silver and gold aren't magnetic. It's a start, but this isn't a definitive test for metal content.
We tell real gold by its weight.
Place your gold jewelry near a magnet. Real gold is not magnetic; if your jewelry pulls toward the magnet, it is fake.
