Why do ferrimagnetic substances show better magnetism than antiferromagnetic substances?

Open in App

Solution

Ferrimagnetic substances show better magnetism then anti ferromagnetic substances as their magnetic dipole moments are better aligned which do not cancel out each other as in the case of antiferromagnetic substances.
