What are two chemical properties of iron?
Physical Properties of Iron 1. Boils at 2750°C 2. Iron's density is 7.874g/cc 3. It is silver- white when pure 4. Its atomic mass is 55.847 5. It reflect 65% of the light that hits it Chemical Properties of Iron 1. Oxidizes in damp air 2. It dissolves quickly in dilute acids 4. It corrodes fast in high temperatures 5.When iron is exposed to air it reacts with oxygen to form hydrated ferric oxide on its surface (rust).
What is an example of a physical change of matter?
A physical change in contrast to a chemical change is one in which the chemical structure of the compounds involved are left unchanged. Only a physical change occurs. One such example is boiling water. This changes the physical state of water from a liquid to a gas. Similarly, freezing water is a physical reaction. In this case, liquid is frozen to form a solid.
Is iron a metalliod?

How do you separate iron oxide and salt water?
A strong magnet or electromagnet can be used to hold the iron oxide(rust) in place as the water is poured off. Care should be taken to bring all of the rust near the magnet in order to collect it all.
Explain how you can use physical properties to separate filings from sawdust?
If they are iron filings, you can use the property of magnetism to remove the iron filings using a magnet. You will need to rinse the iron filings with water after you remove them with the magnet in order to completely remove the sawdust from them.

Can you use a magnet to separate iron oxide into iron and oxygen?
No, because Iron oxide is not a mixture of Iron and Oxygen. It is a compound in which iron and Oxygen have been chemically combined to create a new substance, which has different chemical and physical properties form either of the two elements which it is made from.
