Is there any gold in fools gold?
Fool's gold, also known as pyrite, does not contain any real gold. It is a mineral made of iron sulfide and has a brassy yellow color that can sometimes be mistaken for gold.
What are two methods you can use to differentiate between real gold and fools gold?
Two methods to tell real gold from fools gold are:Rub the piece of gold against a piece of unglazed ceramic material. If it is real, it will leave a golden mark while fools gold will leave a black mark.Apply nitric acid to the gold. If it dissolves, then it is obviously fake, as real gold cannot be dissolved in nitric acid.
How can heat be used to tell real gold from fools gold?
Real gold has a higher melting point than fools gold. By applying heat, it is possible to determine the melting point of the material. If the material melts at a temperature higher than 1,064 degrees Celsius (1,947 degrees Fahrenheit), it is likely real gold.
Is Fools Gold Real Gold?
No. It is iron pyrite and much more minerals. However, the two are sometimes found together, and some samples of fools' gold may contain trace amounts of real gold, but only a tiny spec.
Is fools gold a mixture?
No, pyrite, or fools' gold, is a compound called iron disulfide (FeS2).

Are there Field tests for telling the difference between fools gold and real gold?
Real gold is extremely soft and malleable; therefore, real gold could be dented with little pressure. Fools gold (Iron Pyrite) is much harder, and therefore harder to dent. A practical method is to get the material wet, and hold it up in the sun. Gold and fools gold will both shine. Now put your hand between the material and the sun. The gold will still shine, but the fools gold will become quite dark. This is because the shine of gold comes from diffuse reflection (like light shining on paper), while fools gold's comes from specular reflection (like a mirror).
