No, not all meteorites are magnetic. Only a subset of meteorites called iron meteorites are typically magnetic due to the presence of iron-nickel alloys. Other types of meteorites, such as stony or stony-iron meteorites, are not magnetic.

No. Some are just tiny bits of ice, dust or rock that burn up in the atmosphere of Earth.

Not all of them; many are more rocky than metallic. However, among metallic meteorites, iron and nickel are two of the more common elements.

If you found a small charred black and white rock on your driveway is it a meteorite?

It's possible the black and white rock is a meteorite, as meteorites can have a black fusion crust from entering Earth's atmosphere. To confirm if it's a meteorite, you would need to have it examined by a professional meteorite expert or scientist who can conduct tests such as a chemical analysis or a magnetic test.

What is a property of a magnetic field?

One property of a magnetic field is that its divergence is zero. That means that a magnetic field line is always a loop and that the net magnetic field coming out of or going in to an enclosed surface is always zero. The result of this is that there are no magnetic monopoles, at least none discovered. Theories, however, do abound.
