Question

why iron is called a magnetic substances​

Answer 1

iron is magnetic in its α form. The α form occurs below a special temperature called the Curie point, which is 770 °C. Iron is paramagnetic above this temperature and only weakly attracted to a magnetic field. Magnetic materials consist of atoms with partially-filled electron shells.

Answer 2

Answer:

In substances such as iron, cobalt, and nickel, most of the electrons spin in the same direction. This makes the atoms in these substances strongly magnetic—but they are not yet magnets. ... The force generated by the aligned atoms creates a magnetic field. The piece of iron has become a magnet.
