To make an iron bar into a magnet you need to get a bar magnet and stroke the iron one way when you get to the end of iron take the magnet off and jump it back to the start and stroke repeat this several times and your bar will soon become magnetic.

This is only temporary, therefore the iron will become normal after the magnetic field rubs off. This means that making iron into a magnet is indeed a physical change.

Is separating sulfur and iron with a magnet chemical or physical change?

This is not a change at all. However it is physical when you use a magnet to physically seperate (by manetic force) .


How could a student use a magnet to indicate that combining iron an sulfur to produce the mixture of iron and sulfur is a physical change?

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.


Is heating a bar magnet chemical or physical change?

Heating a bar magnet is a physical change because the magnet does not undergo a chemical reaction. The heat energy causes the atoms in the magnet to vibrate, which disrupts the alignment of the magnetic domains within the magnet, thereby reducing its magnetic strength.


Jim drops an iron magnet during a chemistry lab experiment and she finds that it is no longer magnetic so what has happened in terms of its properties?

The iron magnet lost its magnetism, possibly due to undergoing a physical change that disrupted its magnetic alignment. This change could have disrupted the magnetic domains within the iron, causing it to no longer exhibit magnetic properties.

Can salt and iron filings be separated by physical means?

Yes, salt and iron filings can be separated by physical means such as using a magnet. The iron filings will be attracted to the magnet, allowing them to be picked up while the salt remains in the mixture.
