Iron and some alloys of iron are also magnetic. Iron is about eight times heavier than water (its relative density is 7.87). When iron is exposed to air it starts to turn back into iron oxide and the red powder that forms on the surface of iron is what we call rust. You may have seen rust on old cars or old iron sheds.
