Sometimes. It depends on what is in it. Unknown to many, the only real gold is the dull yellow soft stuff they keep at Fort Knox. All other forms of gold are alloys of gold silver coper and a few other metals. In the case of white gold, there are three metals used primarily in giving it the shinny white color; Nickel, Silver and a platinum group metal called "Palladium". Unless there is a Nickel content in the white gold in question, there will be no magnetic attraction, as the only four metals which are natural magnetic are Iron, Nickel, Cobalt and Gadolinium. One interesting characteristic of white gold with a Nickel content is that about 15% of people will have an allergic reaction to the Nickel when worn over an extended period. This makes Nickel the least likely of the three metals to be contained in white gold used for jewelry.

Will a magnet stick to steel wool brillo?

Do a steel nail and a magnet stick together?
A steel nail and a magnet can stick together because steel is a ferromagnetic material. This means that it can be magnetized and will be attracted to a magnet. When a magnet is brought close to a steel nail, the magnetic field can cause the nail to become magnetized, leading to attraction. However, if the nail is not magnetized or if the magnet is too weak, they may not stick together.
