Within a magnet, the separate poles are composed of domains, regions where the individual atoms are aligned with parallel magnetic moments.

Group of atoms whose magnetic poles are aligned?
magnetic domain.
A grouping of atoms that have their magnetic fields aligned is called?
A Magnetic Domain is a cluster of billions of atoms that have magnetic fields lines up the same way.
What is the term for the distinctive poles formed when a magnetic material's atoms group together in regions?
domains
What is the definition for Magnetic Domain?
A region in which the magnetic fields of atoms, or electron spin, are grouped together and similarly aligned.
How are the atoms in a magnet arranged?
The atoms in a magnet are arranged in some kind of lattice, but the arrangement of the atoms is not what is important. What is important is that the magnetic dipoles of a good portion of the atoms are all "pointing" in the same direction. The aligned atomic magnetic dipoles form groups called magnetic domains, and these are locked in place making the magnet a permanent magnet. It "permanently" holds its magnet field, and is said to be a permanent magnet. And all because the magnetic domains in the ferromagnetic material are largely aligned.

What is clustered region of aligned magnetic atoms called?
Technically impossible . In a rock , ferromagnetism can create poles , but not in atoms . Atoms cannot be magnetic . Molecules can be polar , which leads to Van der Waals links , but a region's molecule cannot become all lined in the same directions . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VmMr9TWzY4 http://media-2.web.britannica.com/eb-media/65/265-004-9B256ADC.gif Pretty simple , as a matter of fact .
Why is magnet unable to stick to a stainless steel refrigerator?
If a magnet doesn't stick to a material, that means that the material is non-magnetic. Every individual atom is a magnet, but in a magnetic material, there are groups of atoms (called "magnetic domains") that have their magnetic directions aligned. An outside magnetic field in such materials will align some of the magnetic domains in the direction of the magnetic field.

domains
What are clusters of aligned atoms in iron and some other metals?
magnetic alignment
What is the definition for Magnetic Domain?
A region in which the magnetic fields of atoms, or electron spin, are grouped together and similarly aligned.
Why the gold does not show magnetic properties?
The atoms are not aligned in one direction known as vectors. Such alignment is necessary for magnetic properties to occur.
A steel needle becomes magnetic when stroked by a strong magnet because the atoms in the needle rearrange into?
The atom's electrons spin in an orchestrated manner aligned parallel to each other. This rearranges the atoms into tiny bar magnets with two poles commonly referred to as north and south.A2 a small group of similarly-aligned magnets is called a magnetic domain.
How do the atoms differ in materials that can be useful as magnets and materials that cannot?
The primary difference is that in materials that can be used as magnets, the atoms can form what are called magnetic domains. Individual atoms and small groups of them form these domains, and the domains can be caused to "face the same way" when exposed to a magnetic field. When the field that aligned them is removed, some of the domains don't return to their previous orientation. They stay aligned leaving a residual magnetic field. The materials that cannot be used magnets don't have magnetic domains. If you heat magnetic material and expose it to a strong magnetic field while it's hot (like at or above its Curie temperature), and then you apply a strong magnetic field and maintain the field while cooling it down, the field "impressed" on the material will largely stay there and you've made a permanent magnet.

Why are some objects attracted to magnets while other objects are not?
Some objects are not attracted by magnets because they are not metalic. If the Magnet just attracts metalic minerals, definitely only metalic are attracted and not non-metalic..
