Iron can come in pieces of different sizes.
The height of a piece of paper folded in half once is half of its original height.
When an iron piece is quite away from the magnet ,i.e, not present in magnetic field of the magnet then the iron piece is in neutral state ,i.e, there is no north & south pole . But , as soon as the iron piece interacts with magnetic field of magnet ,i.e, near to the magnet then the north pole of magnet make the nearer part or end of the iron piece south pole & simultaneously other part of iron becomes north pole . Similarly if south pole of the magnet interacts with iron piece then that end/part becomes north pole & other end becomes north pole . Now this iron piece has north & south pole .So iron piece is now converted into magnet which can attract other iron pieces in similar way as explained before .
When a piece of iron is placed in hydrochloric acid, the products are Iron (II) chloride and hydrogen gas.
An unmagnetized piece of iron has its atoms pointing in different directions, and opposing each other. When the iron is magnetized, the atoms are mostly pointing in the same direction, and the fields add together.
It has a greater surface area than the single piece of iron
Maybe someone picked up a piece of "magnesian" rock on an Aegean coast and noticed the piece of lodestone was peculiar. It attracted a piece of iron, and could change the properties of the iron when the iron was rubbed with the rock.
Zombies can drop many items here is a list from what I believe is the least to the most rare: .carrots and potatoes .iron ingot .iron tool .golden armor piece .iron armor piece .chain armor piece . enchanted armor piece
If its just iron then there is only one type of atom: iron atoms
Iron filings are made when you file a piece of iron with a rasp (they are the bits that are scraped off). They are therefore made of Iron.
The process by which a iron piece touching a permanent magnet behaves as a magnet as long as it maintains contact is called magnetic induction. not only does this work when the iron is physically touching the magnet but it works as long as the piece of iron remains under the influence of the magnet. A iron piece attracted to a magnet through a paper with out any physical contact will also behave as a magnet.
If the isotopic composition of a piece of iron, or rock, is not the one typically found on Earth, then the suspicion is strong that it originated in outer space.
If the piece of metal is a magnet it will attract another piece of iron. You should be able to feel this attraction as the two become very close. It's magnetic field can be "seen"( that is the effect) by placing iron filings on a piece of glass and place the magnet beneath the glass. Otherwise it is not a magnet.
