MCQ
Pick out the temperature at which iron becomes paramagnetic?
  • A
    800°C
  • B
    700°C
  • C
    600°C
  • D
    500°C

Answer

  1. 800°C

Explanation:

Iron is a ferromagnetic material. Ferromagnetism decreases with a rise in temperature, and above a certain temperature called “Curie’s temperature,” ferromagnets become paramagnets. For iron, it is approximately, 800°C.
