HOW DOES THE SPIN OF ELECTRONS EFFECT THE MAGNETIC PROPERTIES IN A SUBSTANCE ?

Open in App
Solution

Electron spin specifies the magnetic properties of the sample whether it isdiamagnet, paramagnet or ferromagnet. Actually the tendency of allignmentof spins with respect to applied magnetic field causes magnetization. Like in diamagneticmaterials, th etendency is very low whereas for paramagnetic its very quick and positive responseto the external field direction.
