Pyrite is made of iron and sulfur and is the compound iron sulfide with the chemical formula FeS2. It is not a mixture of iron and sulfur. The iron and sulfur are chemically combined to form a compound.
Sulfur and iron filings together are a mixture.
Iron sulfide is a compound composed of iron and sulfur elements, while iron sulfur refers to a mixture of iron and sulfur elements. Iron sulfide has a specific chemical formula (FeS) and a defined structure, whereas iron sulfur is a general term that does not imply a specific composition or structure.
Iron and sulfur form a mixture known as iron sulfide, often called pyrite or fool's gold. This mixture can be created by heating a combination of iron and sulfur powders in a controlled environment.
No, the proportion of iron and sulfur in a mixture is not always fixed. It can vary depending on the composition of the mixture and how it was prepared. The proportion can be adjusted by changing the quantities of iron and sulfur added to the mixture.
Reacting iron with sulfur an iron sulfide is formed, not a mixture.
A mixture of iron and sulfur can be separated by using a magnet to attract the iron (which is magnetic) while leaving the sulfur behind. The iron can then be removed, leaving the sulfur as the only component remaining.

Heating a mixture of iron and sulfur will result in the formation of iron sulfide, commonly known as iron (II) sulfide or ferrous sulfide. This is a black solid compound with the chemical formula FeS.
Iron sulfur mixture is magnetic because iron is a ferromagnetic material; meaning it can be magnetized and retain its magnetism. When iron is combined with sulfur to form a mixture, the presence of iron in the mixture imparts magnetic properties to it.
