Solution
Magnetic separation method is used to separate a mixture that has components with different magnetic properties.
This method is based on the difference in the magnetic properties of the components.
In this method , a magnet is rotated over a mixture and the substances that are magnetic in nature gets clinged to the magnet while the non magnetic components of the mixture remain behind.
For example : Removal of iron filings from sulphur.
