Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2022

Given below are two statements :

Statement I : Susceptibilities of paramagnetic and ferromagnetic substances increase with decrease in temperature.

Statement II : Diamagnetism is a result of orbital motions of electrons developing magnetic moments opposite to the applied magnetic field.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. A Both Statement I and Statement II are true. Correct answer
  2. B Both Statement I and Statement II are false.
  3. C Statement I is true but Statement II is false.
  4. D Statement I is false but Statement II is true.

Solution

<p>Statement I is true as susceptibility of ferromagnetic and paramagnetic materials is inversely related to temperature.</p> <p>Statement II is true as because of orbital motion of electrons the diamagnetic material is able to oppose external magnetic field.</p>
