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?

The hypothesis for separating iron filing and sulfur powder using a magnet is that iron is a magnetic material, whereas sulfur is not. By using a magnet, we can separate the iron filings from the sulfur powder based on their magnetic properties.


When a mixture of iron filings and sulfur is put in carbon disulphide in a test tube what can be observed?

When a mixture of iron filings and sulfur is put in carbon disulphide in a test tube, the sulfur will dissolve in the carbon disulphide, leaving behind the iron filings. The iron filings can be separated from the solution using a magnet.


How do you separate copper sulfate and sulfur?

You can separate copper sulfate and sulfur by heating the mixture. Sulfur has a lower melting point than copper sulfate, so it will melt and can be separated by filtering while copper sulfate remains solid.


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.

What is the separation method for iron filings and sulphur to obtain iron filings?

One method to separate iron filings and sulfur is to use a magnet. The iron filings are attracted to the magnet and can be easily separated from the sulfur. This method takes advantage of the magnetic properties of iron filings.


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.


How do you obtain sulphur from a mixture of sulphur and iron fillings?

To obtain sulphur from a mixture of sulphur and iron fillings, you can use a magnet to separate the iron fillings from the mixture. Then, you can heat the remaining mixture to sublimate the sulphur, which will turn into a gas and can be collected by condensing it back into a solid form.


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.

Can you make salt from sulphur?

It is impossible.


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.


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.


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.
