Depending on how strong the magnet is the amount of paper clips it can pick up will vary.

Why don't you test it for yourself?

Of a ferromagnet an electromagnet a temporary magnet or a permanent magnet which is easy to create but loses its magnetism easily?

The temporary magnet becomes a magnet in a strong magnetic field, but its magnetic properties will disappear when that field is taken away. The ferromagnet and the permanent magnet are essentially the same thing. The electromagnet isn't that easy to make compared to the temporary magnet. Let's conduct an esperiment. If we take a bar magnet and pick up a paperclip with it, we can use the paperclip on the end of the magnet to pick up another paperclip. The second paperclip we are picking up only needs to touch the first paperclip; it does not have to touch the magnet itself. When the magnet is taken away, the paperclips no longer exhibit magnetic properties. They were acting as temporary magnets, and the simple and easy removal of the magnet cause them to lose their magnetism.
