If you simply mix iron filings and sulfur crystals together, you get a mixture. The iron keeps the properties of iron (including its ability to be magnetized), and the sulfur retains the properties of sulfur. This mixture can be easily separated mechanically by simply passing a magnet nearby, which will magnetize and attract the iron filings. If you combine the two using heat, however, they iron and sulfur will chemically react to form the compound iron sulfide. This compound will have properties different from either the sulfur or iron. A magnet will no long separate the two (although it might attract excess iron that was not combined in the reaction). This experiment is meant to distinguish the properties of substances combined in mixtures versus substances combined as chemical compounds.
You will get a mixture, which can be separated by using a magnet, it will separate the iron from the sulphur.
Iron + sulphur = Iron Sulphide.
Fe + S = FeS
Iron + sulphur = Iron Sulphide.
Fe + S = FeS
It creates iron sulphide and forms a solid.
Both of them lose their properties and have a totally different set of propertie will any one tell me what those proper ties r I need them for my project
It catches on fire....
