When you magnetize Iron, the atoms of Iron will not have undergone an increase. A physical property of Iron is changed here. No new substances have been formed.
However, when Iron rusts, a new substance, most commonly Fe2O3, is formed. It has now undergone many differences in its molecular structure. Thus, rusting is a chemical change.
