Contrary to popular belief, most metals cannot be magnetised. The only common metals that can be magnetised are iron, cobalt and nickel. Mild steel, an alloy that contains over 98% iron, can also be magnetised because of its high iron content. Some steels, such as some stainless steels, have larger percentages of other metals which prevent them from being magnetised the same way.

Which mineral is attracted to a magnet?
Some minerals contain magnetite, which is atracted to magnets.
When you touch a magnet to a steel nail the nail attracts steel paper clips. Explaine why this does not happen when you use an aluminum nail?
it wouldn't be magnet to a aluminum nail because the aluminum is not a way of magnet and a steel nail would because steel is a way of magnet.
Can a magnet pick up steel bbs?
Yes, a magnet can pick up steel BBs because steel contains iron, which is a magnetic material. The magnet will attract the steel BBs due to their magnetic properties.
Can steel can attract with south pole magnet?
Yes, steel can be magnetized and will attract to a south pole magnet due to its ferromagnetic properties. When a steel material is in close proximity to a magnet, the magnetic domains within the steel align with the external magnetic field, leading to attraction between the two.
Will a N pole magnet attract a piece of unmagnetised steel?
Yes, a north pole magnet will attract a piece of unmagnetized steel. This occurs because the magnetic field of the magnet induces a temporary magnetization in the steel, aligning its domains and creating a magnetic attraction. The unmagnetized steel becomes a weak magnet itself, allowing it to be pulled towards the magnet.

Which mineral is attracted to a magnet?

What objects are atracted to a magnet?
Objects that are attracted to a magnet are typically made of materials containing iron, nickel, or cobalt. This includes materials like iron, steel, nickel, and certain alloys. Other materials, such as plastic or wood, are not attracted to a magnet.
Do steel wire screen sticks to magnet?
Steel will stick to magnets, but stainless steel will not.
How do you tell what are aluminum wheels?
If the wheels are steel, a magnet will stick. If aluminum, it will not.If the wheels are steel, a magnet will stick. If aluminum, it will not.

Can a magnet pick up steel bbs?
Yes, a magnet can pick up steel BBs because steel contains iron, which is a magnetic material. The magnet will attract the steel BBs due to their magnetic properties.
Does steel attract a scrap heap magnet?
A scrap heap magnet attracts steel - but not steel with a high chromium or nickel content
How do you separate aluminium and steel cans?
Aluminium and steel cans can be separated using a magnet, as steel is magnetic while aluminium is not. By running a magnet over a pile of cans, the steel cans will be attracted to the magnet while the aluminium cans will not, allowing for easy separation.
Will the north pole of a magnet attract a peice of unmagnetised steel?
That depends on the steel. If it is a ferrous steel the magnet (either North or South) will attract it - If it is a a stainless steel that is austenitic steel it will not.
How do you separate steel nail from brass screws?
Use a magnet. Brass is non ferrous and will not be attracted to the magnet.
