True.
when you heat a magnet you are supplying it with energy therefore the dipoles have enough energy to free themselves form their initial order.

What kind magnets are made from materials which retain their magnetic properties for a long time?
Permanent magnets.
What is atracted to magnets?
Well it would have to be something that also has magnetic properties. Remember that similar poles/charges repel and opposites attract. So as far as what would be attracted by a magnetic force, I would say anything that is metal and has magnetic properties.
What distinguishes a permanent magnet from a temporary magnet?
Permanent magnets do not lose their magnetic ability. Temporary magnets, however, gain magnetic properties when they are touched or moved by a permanent magnet. The properties of a temporary magnet dissipates over time after the permanent magnet is removed.
Are there 2 or 3 properties of magnets?
There are 2 properties of magnets.

What are temporary magnets?
they have magnetic properties that weaken with time.
What magnets are made from materials which retain their magnetic properties for a long time?
Permanent magnets.
What kind magnets are made from materials which retain their magnetic properties for a long time?
Permanent magnets.
What is the scientific name of something that sticks to magnets?
Ferromagnetic materials are substances that stick to magnets due to their strong magnetic properties.

What make magnet lose its magnetism if it is?
Magnets can lose their magnetic properties if exposed to high heat or are made subject to high impact. The temperature at which magnets lose magnetic properties is referred to as the Curie Temperature for ferromagnetic materials.
What is inside magnets?
There is nothing inside magnets. The solid metal has magnetic properties due to it's molecular make up. Magnets are commonly made of iron, but there are more powerful magnets, made from alloys of rare earth metals. The magnetic fiels surround the whole magnetic object.
All things made of iron are magnet?
Iron has magnetic properties and magnets will "stick" to it.
What are objects that keep their magnetic properties for a long time called?
Permanent magnets
What happens to magnets when they are heated?
it will lose its magnetism OR it will get weaker
How does breaking a magnet change its magnetic properties?
There is no reversal of polarity when a magnet is broken. If you break a magnet, labeled N--S, into two, then you end up with two magnets of N--S and N--S.
