The main ferromagnetic metals are iron, nickel, and cobalt. The uncommon element gadolinium is magnetic. These form alloys that are also magnetic, such as steel. The rare-earth elements neodymiumand samarium can also form magnetic alloys, and neodymium magnets are among the most powerful of permanent magnets.
*The element titanium is not ferromagnetic. It is paramagnetic, in that it interacts weakly with a magnetic field. Copper ions in solution also demonstrate paramagnetism.
*The elements silver, Mercury, and gold can display diamagnetism, being slightly repelled by a strong magnetic field. Compounds of these elements can display very weak magnetic interactions. They will not display magnetic properties, but become increasingly affected at very low temperatures.

∙ 15y agoDiamagnetic metals have a very weak and negative susceptibility to magnetic fields. Diamagnetic materials are slightly repelled by a magnetic field and the material does not retain the magnetic properties when the external field is removed. Diamagnetic materials are solids with all paired electron resulting in no permanent net magnetic moment per atom. Diamagnetic properties arise from the realignment of the electron orbits under the influence of an external magnetic field. Most elements in the Periodic Table, including copper, silver, and gold, are diamagnetic. Paramagnetic metals have a small and positive susceptibility to magnetic fields. These materials are slightly attracted by a magnetic field and the material does not retain the magnetic properties when the external field is removed. Paramagnetic properties are due to the presence of some unpaired electrons, and from the realignment of the electron orbits caused by the external magnetic field. Paramagnetic materials include magnesium, molybdenum, lithium, and tantalum.

∙ 13y agoThe elements who are ferromagnetic at ambient temperatura (approx. 300 K) are:
Iron (TC=1043 K), nickel (TC=627 K), cobalt (TC=1388 K) gadolinium (292 K).
(TC = Curie Temperature). and ruthenium

Is silver ferromagnetic?
no
What are common ferromagnetic materials?
Irons
What is the name for an atom that has single electrons in its outermost shell?
Hydrogen, Lithium, Sodium... etc. All of the elements in the first column of the periodic table.
Is platinum ferromagnetic?
diamagnetic material
An examle of a common ferromagnetic material is?
The most common ones are iron, nickel and cobalt, though there is a great variety of somewhat exotic ferromagnetic substances.
What elements atract to magnet?
Ferromagnetic elements as Fe, Co, Ni.
What happens above Curie temperature?
Above the Curie temperature ferromagnetic elements and materials lose this characteristic.
Are pennies ferromagnetic?
Pennies are currently made of zinc with a thin copper plating. Neither copper nor zinc are magnetic and will be attracted to anything but an extremely strong magnetic field.
Is the element nickel a solid liquid or a gas?
It is a metal ,one of the ferromagnetic elements the remaining are iron ,cobalt & gadolinium
Is a ferromagnetic material.?
Yes, steel is a ferromagnetic material.
What are ferro magnetic materials?
The elements Fe, Ni, and Co and many of their alloys are typical ferromagnetic materials. Ferromagnetic materials exhibit parallel alignment of moments resulting in large net magnetisation even in the absence of a magnetic field. See the related links below for more information.
Magnets repel what elements?
A good periodic table will have a symbol telling you which elements are ferromagnetic (strongly attracted by magnets), paramagnetic (weakly attracted by magnets), or diamagnetic (weakly repelled by magnets). Pyrolytic carbon is fairly strongly diamagnetic, as is bismuth. A lot of other elements (including mercury, silver, lead and copper) are diamagnetic to a lesser degree. I've linked to a table showing which are which for many (but not all) elements.
Why does ferromagnetic substance become paramagnetic on heating?
Heating a ferromagnetic substance causes the heat to disrupt the magnetic particles thatÊpoint in the same direction and therefore it becames paramagnetic which is barely magnetic at all.
Is silver ferromagnetic?
no
Is water ferromagnetic?
no
What materials will a magnet not stick to?
wood 2. essentially all items that are not ferromagnetic. =~ 'contains iron'.
What is a ferromagnetic element?
Some ferromagnetic elements are: Iron Nickel Cobalt Gadolinium Dyprosium Ferromagnetic means- a substance such as iron in which the magnetic moments of the atoms spontaneously line up with each other, making a large net magnetic moment. Ferromagnets lose their ferromagnetism when heated above a specific temperature (called the Curie point), because the thermal energy melts the magnetic alignment, a bit like the way crystals melt when heated.
