Iron oxide is a chemical compound made of iron and oxygen. It exists in two main forms: Fe2O3 (iron(III) oxide, or hematite) and Fe3O4 (iron(II,III) oxide, or magnetite).
Iron is an element (can't be divided into two things), although steel is iron mixed with things like carbon, vanadium, manganese, chromium or tungsten. True iron filings are just little shavings of iron, but steel is often used. The extraction and processing of iron ore utilizes the magnetic property of iron, so almost all iron used already has a magnetic polarity "built in".
Iron is the heavier element from which steel is primarily made.
Copper does not rust, but it can develop a patina or greenish tarnish when exposed to air and moisture over time. This patina can actually help protect the copper from further corrosion.
Yes & No. Iron is an Element with symbol Fe. Most Nails are an alloy of Iron and other metals and usually coated or anodized. However most nails will still have the properties of pure Iron, such as magnetism and oxidizes rapidly. Iron is an element. Nails are made using iron or iron alloys.

A magnet can pick up things that are made of iron because iron is a ferromagnetic material, meaning it is attracted to magnets.
A magnet can pick up things made from iron or other ferromagnetic materials.

Iron has magnetic properties and magnets will "stick" to it.
It's something you can stand things on, and it's made of iron.
