Question

Is Titanium Paramagnetic Or Diamagnetic?

Answer 1

The periodic table shows titanium with the symbol "$\mathrm{Ti}$", whose atomic number is$22$ and electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d² 4s².

1. The Greek mythological Titans are the inspiration for the name of the shiny, silver-colored transition metal titanium. In 1791, by William Gregor in Cornwall, Great Britain.
2. Even though titanium is less dense than steel, it is just as strong. Ranking tenth in the list of the most common metals on earth.
3. Compared to other metals, it is less electrically and thermally conductive and is paramagnetic.
4. It is non-magnetic and ductile.

Paramagnetic: paramagnetic materials tend to be weakly magnetized in the direction of the magnetic field.

1. Paramagnetic materials have permanent magnetic or dipole moments.
2. Conversely, when the applied field is removed, the material loses its magnetic properties.

Hence, Titanium is Paramagnetic.
