The magnetic effect on iron depends on the orientation of iron atoms in a crystal of iron. The atoms tend to line up so their magnetic moments are parallel within a small area of the iron crystal (magnetic domain). When a magnetic field is applied, the domains rotate their magnetic mometents to line up with the field When iron and sulfur are mixed and heated, the sulfur reacts with the iron to form a compound (Iron sulfide) which doesn't have the same alignment of iron atoms or the same domain structure as pure iron.

No theory yet taking an informed shot on the midnights right here i'd say confident... asserting confident via fact although interior the liquid/molten form the place the electrons a freely roaming and sliding bypass one yet another in a distinctive area, if an electromagnet efficient sufficient may well be got here across that could nonetheless align those electrons then it is achievable that even interior the molten state Iron would be magnetic

Presumably the mixture was cooked to cause a chemical reaction. The resulting compound, iron sulfide, no longer has the electron structure in the iron that causes ferromagnetism.

hey, when the mixture of iron and sulphur is heated, it changes into ironsulphide. when, in compounds, the phiscal properties of substances do not work.That is why, iron is not attracted towards magnet.

'Cause it has sulfur in it
