Why is it impossible to separate iron filings from sulphur after heating?

The application of heat caused the iron atoms and the sulfur atoms to merge into molecules of iron sulfide. In other words, heat changed the mixture to a compound.

Hypothesis of separating iron filing and sulfur powder?
As the mixture of iron filings and sulphur powder are together/mixed it can be easily separated by a magnet.
When a mixture of iron filings and sulfur is put in carbon disulphide in a test tube what can be observed?
the solution remains colorless as sulphur dissolves in carbon disulphide.
How do you separate sulphur from roll sulfur and carbon?
By the process of Filtration.
After heating iron and sulfur is it possible to use a magnet to separate the mixture?
It would all depend entirely on the situation and environment that this experiment is conducted within. I'll try to cover the basic scenarios Iron and Sulphur will not bond at regular boiling point. That being said, I will assume that these agents have not indeed bonded and are a mixture of the two minerals. That being the case, you can separate Iron from Sulphur using a magnet. Hope this answers your question
How do you separate ammonium chloride and sulphur from its mixture?
Ammonium chloride is soluble in water, sulphur isn't. So mix the mixture with water and filter out the sulphur. Now evaporate the filtrate to obtain the ammonium chloride and permit the sulphur to dry.
How do you separate iron filings from sulphur?
use a magnet
Can the iron and sulfur be sparated by means of a magnet?
Yes you can. Since the iron filings are magnetic, but sulphur is not - you can use a magnet to separate the two elements.
What is the separation method for iron filings and sulphur to obtain iron filings?
magnetic separation.
When iron filings and sulphur powder are mixed both retain their indiviual property this change is?
1. Mixing iron and sulfur at room temperature is a physical procedure. 2. By heating a reaction occur and this is a chemical process.
How do you separate sulphur?
Sulphur is a pure element. Unless its mixed in with something else there is nothing to separate it from.
What substance is found at the side of the test tube containing the mixture of sulfur and iron filings after heating?
When sulfur and iron are heated together Fe and sulphur ions are formed. These ions make FeS together. FeS is black in color.
How will you separate a mixture of aluminium and iron filings and sugar?
To retrieve the iron just use a magnet. To retrieve the sulphur just put the remaining mixture in water and dissolve it. Then using a filter paper filter the solution, the sulphur which is not soluble will remain on the filter paper and to retreive the sugar from the solution just re-crystallize it.
How do you separate sulphur from a mixture of sulphur and sand?
It is very simple
How do you separate sulphur from mixture of sulphur and sand?
It is very simple
Can you make salt from sulphur?
It is impossible.
What was the new substance formed after heating the iron-sulfur mixture?
The result of heating iron filings and sulfur powder mixture shows an exothermic reaction which forms a compound, iron sulfide.
How do you obtain sulphur from a mixture of sulphur and iron fillings?
Probably the simplest way would be to use a strong magnet to attract the iron filings only from the mixture, leaving the sulfur behind.
