Chapter 13: Problem 1984

The magnetic susceptibility is negative for (a) Paramagnetic materials (b) Diamagnetic materials (c) Ferromagnetic materials (d) Paramagnetic and ferromagnetic materials

Short Answer

Expert verified
The magnetic susceptibility is negative (\(\chi < 0\)) for (b) Diamagnetic materials.

Step by step solution

01

Magnetic Susceptibility Definition and Relation to Magnetic Materials

Magnetic susceptibility (\(\chi\)) is a dimensionless quantity that indicates the degree of magnetization of a material in response to an applied magnetic field. The magnetic susceptibilities of different materials are: 1. \(\chi > 0\) for paramagnetic materials 2. \(\chi < 0\) for diamagnetic materials 3. \(\chi >> 0\) for ferromagnetic materials
02

Identifying the Correct Answer

Based on the information about the magnetic susceptibilities of different materials above, the magnetic susceptibility is negative (\(\chi < 0\)) for diamagnetic materials. Thus, the correct answer is: (b) Diamagnetic materials
