Answer 4

You are correct yeah, to separate the mixtures using magnets, each will have to have a different attraction to the magnet, giving you that portion, and then only heterogeneous mixtures are affected by magnets, not homogeneous mixtures

Answer 5

Ok so immediately we can cross out anything homogeneous, once they're mixed there's no separating them anymore, like salt and water, that's a homogeneous mixture

Now we can look at heterogeneous, they can be separated, if we look the first one, this is what we'd want as our answer, we're not gonna want two mixtures that are both magnetic on the same level, we want them differently magnetic, or one magnetic and the other one not at all.
