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: -
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsA
According to curie's law, magnetic susceptibility is inversely proportional to temperature for a fixed value of external magnetic field i.e. 
.
The same is applicable for ferromagnet & the relation is given as 
(Tc is curie temperature) Diamagnetism is due to non-cooperative behavior of orbiting electrons when exposed to external magnetic field.
