Small Magnets Can Identify Genuine And Fake Silver Jewelry

Silver jewelry is very popular among young women because of its low price and fashionable appearance. However, there are a lot of fakes in these dazzling silver jewelry. With this doubt, we will do a group of experiments using the characteristics of magnets Let's unravel this confusion.

First using the real silver charms placed around the magnet, we then put the "imitation silver" close to the magnet. Therefore, there is no attraction between silver jewelry and small magnets, but there is mutual attraction between imitation silver jewelry and magnets. This is because magnets mainly absorb ferromagnetic substances, such as iron and nickel, while imitation silver jewelry The main components of the alloy are nickel-plated alloy copper and nickel-plated alloy steel, both of which have the presence of nickel elements, so they can attract each other. But silver jewelry is not a ferromagnetic substance, so it cannot attract each other with the magnet.

Magnets can indeed distinguish genuine and fake silver jewelry. A simple test is a good choice, but we still have to remind everyone that the scientific method is to go to the testing agency to use instruments to identify whether the silver jewelry you buy is genuine.
