A magnet made with any of those elements would be called a ferromagnet. Certain combinations of metals or alloys are called by names that more distinctly identify them. For example, the alnico magnet (made from aluminum, nickel and cobalt) is one of the strongest magnetic alloys known.

Does magnet attract cobalt?

Yes, cobalt is a magnetic material and will be attracted to a magnet. This is because cobalt has unpaired electrons that align in the presence of a magnetic field, causing it to be attracted to the magnet.


Is a magnet a metal?

Not necessarily. Permanent magnets are usually made of metals; on the other hand, ANY substance through which a current flows becomes a magnet, and such a substance need not be a metal. For example, a liquid with ions in it can conduct an electrical current.

Can a magnet pick up a nickel?

No, a magnet cannot pick up a nickel because nickels are made of a non-magnetic material (75% copper and 25% nickel). Magnets are attracted to ferromagnetic materials like iron, nickel, and cobalt.

What elements make a magnet?

A magnet is made of ferromagnetic materials like iron, nickel, or cobalt which have magnetic properties due to the alignment of their electron spins. These aligned spins create a magnetic field that allows the magnet to attract or repel other magnets or magnetic materials.
