technically only iron cobalt and nickel are magnetic, but they have some super conducting synthetic magnets made out of ridiculous heavy metals and other stuff that has formulas like B64U345Je2039JDSK2-39sdklfj-93ulsdf.
Another instance of this is You take one highly flammable chemical, add it to one of the most corrosive materials known to man, and get something very very healthy. What is it? Hydrogen and oxygen make water. Na, highly reactive, and CL, poisonous, make table salt. KNO3, a preserving salt, and sugar, very delicious, mixed make sucrose nitrate- rocket fuel. NH4N03, a fertiliser, and almost anything with a carbon chain-sugar, gas, flour, alcohol, etc makes ANFO- Ammonium Nitrate Fuel Oil- aka fertiliser bomb aka most early explosives aka IED etc.
The magic is in the mix.
