MCQ
Diamagnetic substances are
  • A
    Feebly attracted by magnets
  • B
    Strongly attracted by magnets
  • Feebly repelled by magnets
  • D
    Strongly repelled by magnets

Answer

Correct option: C.
Feebly repelled by magnets
c
(c) Diamagnetic substances repel magnetic field. This is so because an applied magnetic field creates an induced magnetic field in them in the opposite direction, causing a repulsive force. Diamagnetic substances are composed of atoms which have no net magnetic moments,ie., all the orbital shells are filled and there are no unpaired electrons. Water is a diamagnetic substance.
