Lead (Pb) is a diamagnetic material. It means that it will behave magnetically just like wood or water. So it doesn't matter how strong a magnet is, it will never attract lead.
What's more, it will even push it away, but with so little force that it is barely observable.
The required magnet strength is also affected by the weight of the lead block. For example, about 10-20 Teslas will be enough to levitate a small piece of lead. But even this requires a huge magnet, considering your average fridge magnet is about 5 mTesla (0.005 Tesla) strong. Neodymium magnets can reach 1 Tesla.

Which pole of a magnet is attracted to iron?
Any of the two poles will work. It will induce magnetism in the iron.
Can thumbtacks be attracted to magnet?
Most thumbtacks are not magnetic and therefore will not be attracted to a magnet. If a thumbtack is made from a ferromagnetic material like steel, it may be attracted to a magnet. However, thumbtacks are commonly made from non-magnetic materials like brass or plastic.
Is phosphorus attracted by magnet?

Are all metal objects attracted to a magnet?
No, not all metal objects are attracted to a magnet. Only ferromagnetic materials like iron, nickel, and cobalt are attracted to magnets due to their alignment of magnetic moments. Other metals like copper, aluminum, and gold are not attracted to magnets.
What experiment can you use to separate iron filings from small pieces of lead?
One way to separate iron filings from small pieces of lead is by using a magnet. The iron filings will be attracted to the magnet and can be separated from the lead. Simply move the magnet around the mixture to pick up the iron filings.
How can you determine if shotgun shells are made of lead or steel?
To determine if shotgun shells are made of lead or steel, you can use a magnet. Steel shotgun shells will be attracted to the magnet, while lead shotgun shells will not be affected by the magnet.
Is copper attracted to a magnet?
No, copper is not attracted to a magnet.
How can you determine if shotgun shells are made of steel or lead?
To determine if shotgun shells are made of steel or lead, you can use a magnet. Steel shotgun shells will be attracted to the magnet, while lead shotgun shells will not.
What sticks to a temporary magnet?
Anything that is attracted to a permanent magnet will be attracted to (sticks to) a temporary magnet.
Would silicon be attracted by a magnet?
No it would not be attracted by a magnet bc it is non metal
What objects are attracted to a magnet?
Objects that contain iron, nickel, or cobalt are attracted to a magnet.
What objects or materials are attracted to a magnet?
Objects or materials that are attracted to a magnet are typically made of iron, nickel, or cobalt. These materials have magnetic properties that allow them to be attracted to a magnet.
Are yeast attracted to a magnet?
No, yeast is not attracted to a magnet as yeast does not contain any metallic material
