When crystals of feso4 are strongly heated the residue obtained is?

The residue obtained from heating crystals of FeSO4 (iron(II) sulfate) is Fe2O3 (iron(III) oxide) and SO2 (sulfur dioxide) gases. This is because the heating process causes the iron(II) sulfate to decompose, releasing water vapor, sulfur dioxide gas, and leaving iron(III) oxide as a solid residue.

How could a student use a magnet to indicate that combining iron an sulfur to produce the mixture of iron and sulfur is a physical change?

A mixture of iron and sulfur can be separated using a magnet- the iron will be attracted to the magnet, sulfur will not. Not the that the iron could be coated with sulfur powder so an extra step is required to remove it.

What happen in the iron fillings and sulfur powder if they heat together?

What is mixing sulfur with iron fillings?

When you mix Iron filings and Sulphur crystals together, you form a mixture of Iron and Sulphur from which both the components can be separated by physical means. But if you heat the mixture strongly, then it becomes a compound of Iron Sulphide from which the two components cannot be separated by physical means.
