Answer
The attractive property of a magnet refers to its ability to pull certain materials, like iron, nickel, and cobalt, towards itself.
Experiment to show this property:
Place some small iron nails on a table and slowly bring a bar magnet close to them. You will observe that the nails are attracted to the magnet and mostly stick to its ends. Very few, if any, cling to the middle part of the magnet.
This experiment shows that magnets attract magnetic materials and that the attractive force is strongest at the two ends (called poles) of the magnet.
