How do you separate iron from sulphur in a mixture of iron fillings and sulphur?
you an use a magnet to get the iron fillings out
When iron and sulphur are combined what do you get?
Iron sulfides are obtained.
What is the difference between iron and iron sulphide?
A mixture of Iron and Sulphur is exactly that, iron filings mixed with sulphur that has not undergone any chemical reaction. Iron sulphide is the result of the reaction of Iron with sulphur.
What happens when you put a magnet wrapped in cling film nearby iron and sulphur?
The magnet will attract the iron, but will not attract the sulphur.
What is the separation method for iron filings and sulphur to obtain iron filings?
magnetic separation.
How do you separate iron from sulphur in a mixture of iron fillings and sulphur?
you an use a magnet to get the iron fillings out
What happens to iron and sulphur when you add water?
The iron and sulphur split because the iron sinks and the sulphur floats so you can separate the mixture
How do you separate iron filling and sulphur?
Magnet
How do you separate iron filings from sulphur?
use a magnet
How can you separate sulphur and iron?
buy asking tino.
How can you separate the mixture of sulphur power and iron fillings?
by using carbon disulphide
Why is iron and sulfur mixture but not compound?
If you just mix iron and sulphur together, you're still left with a pile of iron and sulphur that are distinctly separate and could be easily separated by throwing the mixture in water (iron sinks, sulphur powder floats). If they were to react together, to become iron sulphide, then they would be chemically bound to each other as a compound and wouldn't be able to be separated by physical means.
Can the iron and sulfur be sparated by means of a magnet?
Yes you can. Since the iron filings are magnetic, but sulphur is not - you can use a magnet to separate the two elements.
What elements would you react together to make the compound iron sulphate?
iron and sulphur
After heating iron and sulfur is it possible to use a magnet to separate the mixture?
It would all depend entirely on the situation and environment that this experiment is conducted within. I'll try to cover the basic scenarios Iron and Sulphur will not bond at regular boiling point. That being said, I will assume that these agents have not indeed bonded and are a mixture of the two minerals. That being the case, you can separate Iron from Sulphur using a magnet. Hope this answers your question
How would you recognize that iron sulphide is not a mixture?
A new substance is formed with different properties from iron and sulphur.
How do you separate sulphur?
Sulphur is a pure element. Unless its mixed in with something else there is nothing to separate it from.
