Classic Chemistry Experiments : A compound from two elements

 
Default Image for Resources

Description

A mixture of iron and sulfur can easily be separated. This is because there are no chemical bonds between the sulfur and the iron. The iron is magnetic and is therefore easily removed from the sulfur. In this experiment, a mixture of iron and sulfur are heated to make a new compound.
