Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Paramagnetic substances exhibit the following characteristics:
Align themselves along the direction of an external magnetic field due to unpaired electrons.
Are weakly attracted to an external magnetic field.
Possess a magnetic susceptibility \( \chi > 0 \), but it is small and positive.
Do not move from strong to weak fields (this is a property of diamagnetic substances).
