What are some common examples of paramagnetic elements?

Solution

Examples of paramagnetic elements.

  1. Since unpaired electrons exist throughout paramagnetic materials, the net magnetization of all electrons throughout an atom does not equivalent to zero.
  2. When an external magnetic field is introduced, this same atomic dipole aligns in the direction of such an external magnetic field.
  3. Paramagnetic materials become weakly magnetized in the magnetizing field's orientation.
  4. Magnets normally have a weak interaction with such materials.

Therefore, the examples of paramagnetic elements are Tungsten, Caesium, Aluminium, Lithium, Magnesium, and Sodium.
