To separate the iron sand mixture we can use a magnet to remove the iron fillings from the sand, because sand is not attracted to the magnet. This technique is called as magnetic separation.

The three main subatomic particles that form an atom are protons, neutrons, and electrons. The center of the atom is called the nucleus. Electron - Negatively charged particle present outside the nucleus of an atom. Proton - Protons are positively charged and are present inside the nucleus. Neutron...

For separation of iron pins from sand most suitable technique is magnetic separation where a magnet is used to attract iron out of sand.

Magnetic separation would be most suitable as sand will be left out when a magnet is hovered over the mixture and the pins are attracted by the magnet and get attached to it.

Which has more number of atoms, 100 grams of sodium or 100 grams of iron (given, atomic mass of Na = 23 u, Fe = 56 u)?
100 gm of sodium will have (Given mass / molar mass )x Avogadro's Number = (100/23) x 6.022 x 10^23 = 2.62 x 10^24 atoms 100 gms of Iron will have (100/56) x 6.022 x 10^23 = 1.07 x 10^24 atoms So 100 gms of Sodium will have more atoms.
