A student has 3 blocks. Each block is made of iron, lead, or copper. All three blocks have equal masses and are the same color. How could the student determine whether any of the blocks are made of iron?
Place a magnet close to each of the blocks.
Record whether the block float or sink in water.

Iron is denser than water and therefore will float.
Iron can break more easily than lead or copper.
Iron is magnetic and will be attracted to a magnet.
