Question

tell me why If pyrite contains iron, it might be slightly attracted to a magnet. That might be another example of a(n) "intensive property" since it wouldn't matter how much you present. (answer in simple words and in 3 sentences)

Answer 1

Pyrite, also known as "fool's gold," contains iron, which is a magnetic metal. This means that when you bring a magnet close to pyrite, it might show a slight attraction because of the iron in it. The attraction to the magnet is an "intensive property," meaning it doesn't depend on how much pyrite you have; it will be the same whether you have a small piece or a large one.
