Yes, a galvanized nail is still made mostly of iron or steel. The galvanization is merely a coating of zinc.
Not measurably.
You could submerge the galvanized iron in HCl, which would then dissolve the zinc, at which point you could weigh the iron again to determine the mass of zinc that was removed.
There were over a billion pennies minted in 1943 out of steel coated with zinc. In circulated condition, they'er worth about 5 cents. What you are probably confusing this with is the rare 1943 COPPER penny. A few dozen of these were accidently made in 1943 from old copper blanks. These sell for tens of thousands of dollars. They are also highly counterfeited -- usually by copper plating a steel 1943 cent -- check with a magnet to eliminate 99% of the fakes (a real one will not stick to a magnet).
Magnetism is the number of magnetic moments per unit of volume, so it is the volume of the magnet that determines magnetism. If an object has great weight and volume, the magnetism will be stronger. If an object has a great weight but lesser volume, the magnetism will be weaker.?æ
Yes, a magnet will stick to galvanized steel. Galvanized steel is steel that has been dipped in molten zinc so it comes out with a zinc coating. (The zinc coating inhibits corrosion.) A magnetic can "reach through" this coating and stick to the steel.

Plastic does not usually contain iron. You may have a plastic coated item. To verify, touch it with a magnet and see if the magnet sticks to it.
Use a magnet IF it sticks its ferrous metal if it does NOT stick it is non ferous metal
Galvanized pipe will be silver/gray color. Copper will be copper. Use a magnet, it'll stick to galvanized pipe but not to copper. Drinking water lines should not be black steel pipe.
Magnetic trailer lights have a protective coating on the magnets to keep them from damaging the paint on the vehicle being towed.They also cannot make contact with "ground" through the paint, even if the protective coating was missing.The answer is, no they do not ground through the magnet.
The magnet by itself would not kill you. However... If the magnet was sharp or pointy it could cut or perforate your digestive tract, which could kill you. If the magnet was too large to pass through your digestive tract it could cause a fatal obsruction. If the magnet was coated with a toxic substance, that substance could kill you.
cork or steel because steel always stick to a magnet and cork somtimes thats all i know about magnets BYE.........
A mixture of iron and sulfur can be separated using a magnet- the iron will be attracted to the magnet, sulfur will not. Not the that the iron could be coated with sulfur powder so an extra step is required to remove it.
This is because modern pennies are not entirely copper, they are nickel with a copper coating.
