compound
If the iron fillings are pure, they contain only one type of atom (all the atoms have the same number of protons). Thus, the filings would be a sample of the element iron. If the filings are rusty, then they would contain compounds (iron oxides).
yes iron fillings are a compound but is also a element. iron is an element but it has some features that it makes a compound.
Iron is a chemical element; sand may be a compound or a mixture.
No, Iron is an element.
First, place the sulfur, sand and iron filings in a plastic container. Next, use a magnet to remove the iron filings from the sulfur-sand mixture and surely,the iron filings will connect to the magnet, leaving the sulfur and sand behind.
What is special about iron filings? Anything with iron in it has this property... magnets are attracted to iron! Magnets do not attract sand. You can use a magnet to separate iron filings from sand.
Here's the full scientific report I had to do in year 7. Title: Magnetic Separation Aim: To separate iron filings from sand using a magnet. Equipment: Magnet, sand and iron filing mixture, plastic bowl Method: 1. Pour the mixture into the plastic bowl 2. Move the magnet slowly through the mixture Results: When the magnet was moved through the mixture, it picked up the iron filings but not the sand. Conclusion: In this experiment we demonstrated that a magnet can pick up iron filings in a sand and iron filing mixture through magnetism. The aim was achieved as we were able to separate the iron filings from the sand.
Yes.
In solution, the salt will be dissolved in the water, the sand and iron will settle to the bottom of the container. Separate out the water, evaporate the water and the salt will remain, separate the sand and iron filings with a magnet.

This can be done by the processs of magnetism. Holding amagent near the mixture will cause the iron filings to be attracted out of the sand.

Sand is NOT an element. Iron IS an element.
It is a mixture
By using a magnet to separate the iron filings, you'd be left with the sulfur and sand mix. Selecting a solvent for the sulfur will allow you to dissolve the sulfur, and then all you have to do is put the sand in a filter and wash the sulfur through with the solvent.
because the iron can be picked up by a magnet
You can move a magnet back and forth right above the mixture. The iron filings will get attracted to the magnet and stick to it while the sand will remain in the container. Iron is a magnetic material while sand is not.
We can use a magnet. It will attract the iron and pull it from the sand.
Hover a magnet over the mixture.The iron filings will be attracted to it.A mixture of sand and camphor will be left. Then,separate the mixture of sand and camphor by using sublimation.
