Non-ferrous metals do not contain iron(Fe) and are therefore not ferromagnetic. Most common of these are copper, silver, aluminium, lead, magnesium, platinum and tungsten. Magnetic fields can produce reactions in all materials, however, and these fall into three general categories: # Ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, cobalt, and nickel, which have a large positive magnetic susceptibility, and are capable of being magnetised by weak magnetic fields. # Paramagnetic materials, such as aluminum, magnesium, and platinum, which have a positive magnetic susceptibility due to molecules or atoms in which there are unpaired electrons, resulting in a magnetic moment contributed to by the spin or orbital motion of the electron. # Diamagnetic materials, such as copper, lead, and silver, which have a negative magnetic susceptibility caused by the motion of electrons in atoms around the nuclei, as they change their orbits and velocities to produce a magnetic field that opposes an applied field.
No, lead cannot be magnetized.
No. Only a hand-full of metals can be magnetized, for example iron, nickel and cobalt.
No, copper cannot be magnetized because it is not a ferromagnetic material.
An ordinary steel sewing needle is easy to magnetize.
No, aluminum cannot be magnetized because it is not a ferromagnetic material.
No, lead cannot be magnetized.
Seeds are not metal, therefore they cannot be magnetized, which makes this question is irrelevant.
No. Only a hand-full of metals can be magnetized, for example iron, nickel and cobalt.
mercury is a non metal present always in semi solid form.as the non metals are neither capable of carrying current nor they can be magnetized..& hence it canot be magnetized...
No, copper cannot be magnetized because it is not a ferromagnetic material.
No. There is no metal in a diamond to magnetize.
Generally, no you can't. A ferromagnetic material has what are called magnetic domains within it. These domains are effectively "tiny magnets" and are randomly arranged when they are in non-magnetized ferromagnetic metals. We can align them and make the material magnetic with the right equipment. A bit of metal that is not ferromagnetic has to domains to realign, so it can't be magnetized.

No; magnesium is paramagnetic.No. It's not a ferrous metal.
Rub it against a magnet repeatedly. * The screwdriver can only be magnetized if made from steel or another magnetic metal, and most of them are. * Once magnetized, the screwdriver will remain magnetized always.
No, aluminum is not a magnetic metal and does not react to magnets in the same way that iron or steel would. This is because aluminum does not have magnetic properties at the atomic level.
Yes, Mercury can be magnetized. The metal is diamagnetic, meaning it can create a magnetic field in response to an external magnetic field, but it is very weakly attracted to magnets due to its low magnetic susceptibility.
