Iron is a paramagnetic substance.so when a magnetic field is applied the molecules align itself in the direction of field.There may be other paramagnetic substances like iron.But diamagnetic substances are difficult to magnetise
because iron is magnetic and copper is not. in iron the electrons spin in one way but in copper some electrons spin in one direction and other moves opposite to this. in fact main reason is just way of spining of electrons that makes them magnetic or non magnetic.
The article in the related link has a pretty good explanation about why some materials are attracted to magnetic fields, or can retain their own magnetic fields (thereby becoming a magnet). A magnetic field can be caused by an electric current. At the atomic level, each electron's spin will produce a tiny magnetic field (an electron moving is a tiny electric current). This magnetic field can be canceled out by another electron in the atom spinning in the opposite direction.
If there is an electron which is not paired with another electron spinning in the opposite direction, then the atom will have a net magnetic moment (it will act like a small magnet). When this material is placed in another magnetic field (like from a permanent magnet, or electromagnet), the little atomic magnets will align themselves with the external field. The aligning of the magnetic fields creates a magnetic attractive force between the material and the external magnetic field.
Copper does not have the necessary magnetic moments to align with the magnetic field, so there is no attractive force. However, you can turn a copper wire into an electromagnet, by running a current through it, which then will have a magnetic field which can attract or repel the other magnetic field.
A piece of copper is diamagnetic. Diamagnetism is the property of an object which causes it to create a magnetic field in opposition to an externally applied magnetic field, thus causing a repulsive effect. Specifically, an external magnetic field alters the orbital velocity of electrons around their nuclei, thus changing the magnetic dipole moment. According to Lenz's law, these electrons will oppose the magnetic field changes provided by the applied field, preventing them from building up. The result is that lines of magnetic flux curve away from the material. In most materials, diamagnetism is a weak effect, but under conditions of superconductivity, which only some materials may obtain, a strong quantum effect can emerge wherein the lines are completely blocked, excluding a very thin layer at the material's surface. Diamagnets are materials with a magnetic permeability less than μ0. (a relative permeability less than 1).
copper itself is not magnetic or is only slightly magnetic. But it does interact with magnets. Copper is Diamagnetic, The magnetic lines of force tend to go around them istead of through them.
ferro magnetic substances can be magnetised. but it is not necessary that all the Ferro magnetic substances can be permanently magnetised. it depends on the alignment of domains in the substance.for example wrought iron can be magnetised permanently but soft iron can only be magnetised temporarily(Electro Magnets).
An electromagnet is made by wrapping many coils of copper wire round an iron bar. When electricity is send along the coiled wires, the iron bar becomes magnetised until the electricity is switched off.
oh im so srry i cant answer it.
you cant they dont mine in your home
iron nickel and colbolt
copper is an element, you cant make copper
A Weakly magnetised nail will pick up less paper clips then a highly magnetised nail, Hope That Helps:)

The strong magnetised nail will pick up more paper clips than the weak magnetised nail.That is because the strong magnetised nail is getting more strength and that means that the weak magnetised nail is getting less strength.in a steel nail there are these things called domains, in a weakly magnetised nail some of them will be pointing north, south, east and west, but however in a strongly magnetised nail all the domains will point to north.
Copper is heavy and not as strong as aluminium.
You cant.
You can put a magnet near the metal. If it gets attracted or repelled, then it is magnetised
No.
Diamagnetic substances are not magnetised. Example: water is a diamagnetic substance, so it cannot be magnetised by any means.
what is the diffrence between a magnetised nail and a unmagnetised nail
Not usually, but it can be magnetised. (=
Because zinc displaces Copper to produce zinc sulfate and Copper
