Diamagnetism
- Diamagnetic substances are weakly repelled by a magnetic field.
- This property is represented by the substances in which all the electrons are paired and there are no unpaired electrons.
- They are weakly magnetized on application of magnetic field in opposite direction.
- Pairing of electrons cancel out their magnetic moments and they lose their magnetic character.
- For example, H2O, NaCl and C6H6 are some examples of such substances.
