 Magnetism is a form of separating mixtures which
involves using a magnet to attract another magnetic
object away from the substance it is in. It is an invisible
force that can attract (or repel) certain materials, such as
iron and steel. This force called magnetic fieldand it is
created by magnets. What is magnets? Magnets are
objects made of magnetic materials that produce a
magnetic field. Magnets pull other objects made of
magnetic material towards them. They will either attracts
or repel other magnets.
Magnetism is a process of separating mixture which
magnetically susceptible material is attracted from a
mixture using a magnetic force. Some examples of
separating magnetic substances from no magnetic
substances are: separating iron nails, from glass
chippings and separating iron paper clips from saw dust.
Magnetic separators are used in factories. Materials are
put on a conveyor belt that is spun by magnetic wheels.
As the objects are moved upside down the non-magnetic
objects fall off and the magnetic one stays on. This
separation technique can also be useful in mining as it
attracted to a magnet. It is used in milling.It removes
metal species in wheat, in order to ensure safety at work.

What is magnet? It is a material or object that produces a

magnetic field. What do you call the process of
separating substance in a mixture using magnet? (Ans:
Magnetism)

F. Application Identify the mixture that can be separated through

magnet. Put a check (/) if it can be separated through
magnet and cross mark (x) if is NOT.

_____4. Rubber band (Ans: X)
_____5. Nail (Ans:/)
