The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
A magnet was placed near a pile that contained both iron and sulfur. The magnet was moved gradually closer to the pile. As it neared the pile, the magnet started attracting small pieces of iron from the pile. Which of these statements best describes the contents of the pile?
F. It is a homogeneous mixture of iron and sulfur. G. It is a heterogeneous mixture of iron and sulfur. H. It is a compound that contains both iron and sulfur. I. It is a compound that can be separated by magnetism.
Answer:
G. It is a heterogeneous mixture of iron and sulfur.
Explanation:
A heterogeneous mixture is one that does not have a uniform composition throughout.
We must recall that a mixture is any combination of substances that do not chemically react together and are separable by physical means.
Having said this, it is clear that I can separate the iron from sulphur by simple magnetic (physical) means. Hence, it is a heterogeneous mixture of iron and sulfur.

No
Explanation:
Mass never changes unless you actually cut off or add to the object.
<u>Weight</u> changes based on gravity, but mass doesn't
Answer:
Explanation:
A <em>combustion reaction</em> is the reaction with oxygen along with the release of energy in form of heat or light.
Organic compounds (like CH₄) undergo combustion forming water and CO₂.
The combustion reaction of CH₄ is:
Hence, the first equation from the choices is not showing the combustion reaction of CH₄.
Not only organic compounds can undergo combustion. Metals and no metals can undergo combustion, i.e. metals and no metals can react with oxygen releasing light or heat.
The reaction of copper and oxygen (second choice) is a combustion reaction:
The formation of water (2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O) is other example of a combustion reaction where no organic compounds are involved.
On the other hand, the other two equations from the choice list are not reactions with oxygen, so they do not show combustion reactions.
