Is gold ferromagnetic?

No. Gold is diamagnetic. The only ferromagnetic metals at room temperature are iron, cobalt and nickel


What metals magnetic?

iron, cobalt, nickel, and others.Not only metals are magnetic. Any element with unpaired electrons will be paramagnetic to some degree. At room temperature however, the only three metals that are ferromagnetic are iron, nickel, and cobalt.Ferromagnetism is a property not just of the chemical make-up of a material, but of its crystalline structure and microscopic organization. There are ferromagnetic metal alloys whose constituents are not themselves ferromagnetic, called Heusler alloys, named after Fritz Heusler. Conversely there are non-magnetic alloys, such as types of stainless steel, composed almost exclusively of ferromagnetic metals.


What does iron and titanium have in common?

These three metals, iron cobalt, and nickel, are ferromagnetic.


Should pure nickel attract a magnet?

Yes, pure nickel is one of the few metals that's ferromagnetic; i.e. it's attracted to a magnet and can itself be magnetized. Iron and cobalt are the only other two common ferromagnetic metals. Gadolinium, neodymium and samarium are the remaining metals.


What metal are magnetics?

alloys of iron and Nickel acts as magnets.They are often termed as AlNICO.


Can you magnetize a bit of metal that is not a magnetic type of metal?

Generally, no you can't. A ferromagnetic material has what are called magnetic domains within it. These domains are effectively "tiny magnets" and are randomly arranged when they are in non-magnetized ferromagnetic metals. We can align them and make the material magnetic with the right equipment. A bit of metal that is not ferromagnetic has to domains to realign, so it can't be magnetized.


Are nickel and cobalt magnetic?

Yes, like iron both nickel and cobalt are ferromagnetic metals.


What element is used to make permenant magnets?

There is no element J. If you're using it as a placeholder and wanting us to supply the name, it could be iron. It could also be nickel, cobalt, aluminium, or just about any of the rare earth elements.


What other metals are magnetic apart from nickel and cobalt?

The ferromagnetic metals are iron, cobalt, nickel, gadolinium, dysprosium and holmium. These metals are capable of holding a strong magnetic field. There are many ferromagnetic alloys that contain one or more of these metals along with other elements that are capable of holding even stronger magnetic fields than the pure metals themselves. This is due to the other elements in the alloy allowing larger domains to form.


What does the term ferromagnetic mean?

a ferromagnetic is of or relating to substances with an abnormally high magnet permeability, a definite saturation point, and appreciable residal magnetism and hysteresis.
