Is a paperclip an element or compound?
that depends on what the paper clip is made of. An aluminum paperclip is going to be an element (Al - Aluminum) a steel paperclip is going to be a compound (carbonized iron) etc... etc... etc...
What is most likely to be attracted by a magnet?
Iron, nickel and some of their alloys are attracted to magnets (only some types of steel). Also, the oppositely charged poles of other magnets or electromagnets.
How do magnets behave?
Magnets are made from magnetic materials. These are metals that can be magnetised or will be attracted to a magnet. Most materials are not magnetic, but iron, cobalt and nickelare magnetic. Steel is mostly iron, so steel is magnetic too.
Can a magnet pick up a paper clip in water?
Certainly, as long as the paper clips are made of iron or steel. Most paper clips are made of polished or zinc-plated steel. Magnetism is a field that is not affected by water or any intervening matter unless that matter is also magnetic, or ferromagnetic.
What are two advantages of artificial magnet over a natural magnet?

A magnet made from a steel paperclip is most likely a?
A temporary magnet.
What magnet does a magnetic strip use?
To remain a magnet it has to be made out of steel as steel makes a permanent magnet.
Which is a permanent magnet?
A magnet which doesn't lose it's magnetic effect when it's away from another magnet .Steel magnets are usually permanent magnets , while those made of iron lose their magnetism , as soon as the original magnet is held away . I simply mean that :-For example , when you use a magnet to attract a paperclip ( or a nail ) made of iron , and you attach a second paperclip to the first one , while still holding the first one to the magnet , the 2nd will still be held to the 1st .As soon as you remove the magnet , the magnetism between the 1st and the 2nd clips will be broken down , and they will fall down .But if you use nails ( or paperclips ) made of steel , the magnetism between the 1st and the 2nd nail will still be there , even if the original magnet is held away from the 1st .
How do you prevent rust on paper clips?
A paperclip cannot rust because rust is the oxidation of iron or steel as a result with interaction with water or air. Therefore a paperclip cannot rust because it is made out of iron or steel. It is made out of aluminum.
Is a paperclip aluminum?

Is a paperclip an element or compound?
that depends on what the paper clip is made of. An aluminum paperclip is going to be an element (Al - Aluminum) a steel paperclip is going to be a compound (carbonized iron) etc... etc... etc...
What a magnet cannot be made by?
Magnet cannot be made by all materials except nickel, iron, steel and cobalt.
What is the difference between iron and magnet?
Magnet attract things made of iron nickel steel
What are paper clips made out of?
paper clips are usually made out of steel wire. Some are made out of plastic.
What kind of magnet is a magnet made from a steel paper clip?
If it has been magnetized by another magnet, then it is just a temporary magnet, but if it uses an electric current, then it is an electro-magnet.
Can a alumiminum can be picked up by a magnet?
no,it can not be picked by a magnet because it is not made of iron, steel, nickel ,& copper
If a nail is made of steel will it be magnetized why?
Yes, if a nail is made of steel, it will will not be magnetized unless it is magnetized by a magnet by being hit.
