- AMetals
- ✓Ferro$-$magnetic materials
- CNon$-$metals
- DDia$-$magnetic materials
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Ferro$-$magnetic materials
The substances which are attracted towards a magnet are called ferro-magnetic materials Materials that can be magnetized, which are also the ones that are strongly attracted to a magnet, are called ferromagnetic $($or ferrimagnetic$)$. These include iron, nickel, cobalt, some alloys of rare$-$earth metals, and some naturally occurring minerals such as lodestone.
