what are the magnetic properties of metals?
17933
The most common metals used for permanent magnets are iron, nickel, cobalt and some alloys of rare earth metals. There are two types of permanent magnets: those from “hard” magnetic materials and those from “soft” magnetic materials. “Hard” magnetic metals tend to stay magnetized over a long period.

Physical and Chemical Properties Iron, like other metals, conducts heat and electricity, has a luster, and forms positive ions in its chemical reactions. Pure iron is fairly soft and can easily be shaped and formed when hot. Its color is silvery white. Iron is easily magnetized.

There are three noteworthy elements in the transition metals family. These elements are iron, cobalt, and nickel, and they are the only elements known to produce a magnetic field.

Nonmagnetic materials based on nonferrous metals usually have lower magnetic permeability than nonmagnetic steels and cast irons, and they readily undergo cutting and pressure working. However, their mechanical properties are not always satisfactory, and their electric resistance is low.

['Atoms in metals lose electrons to form cations. Delocalized electrons surround the ions. ... ', 'Because outer electrons of metal atoms are delocalized and highly mobile, metals have electrical and thermal conductivity. ... ', 'Metals are ductile, or capable of plastic deformation. ... ', 'In general, metals are denser than nonmetals.']

Physical properties Ruthenium is a hard, silvery-white metal with a shiny surface. Its melting point is about 2,300 to 2,450°C (4,200 to 4,400°F) and its boiling point is about 3,900 to 4,150°C (7,100 to 7,500°F). Its density is 12.41 grams per cubic centimeter.

The traditional definition focuses on the bulk properties of metals. They tend to be lustrous, ductile, malleable, and good conductors of electricity, while nonmetals are generally brittle (for solid nonmetals), lack lustre, and are insulators.

Physical properties are things that are measureable. Those are things like density, melting point, conductivity, coefficient of expansion, etc. Mechanical properties are how the metal performs when different forces are applied to them. That includes things like strength, ductility, wear resistance, etc.

Physical Properties of Metals Metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile, good conductors of heat and electricity. Other properties include: State: Metals are solids at room temperature with the exception of mercury, which is liquid at room temperature (Gallium is liquid on hot days).

['Color : Silvery-white with a bluish tint.', 'Hardness : The pure metal is soft, but it becomes strong and hard when alloyed.', 'Ductility : It can be beaten into extremely thin sheets.', 'Malleability : Capable of being shaped or bent.']

Metals are dense, shiny, good conductors of heat and electricity, and easily lose electrons in chemical reactions. Nonmetals are not dense, dull, do not conduct heat and electricity, and tend to gain electrons.
