Among the following properties describing diamagnetism identify the property that is wrongly stated.

ADiamagnetic material do not have permanent magnetic moment
BDiamagnetism is explained in terms of electromagnetic induction
CDiamagnetic materials have a small positive susceptibility
Correct Answer
DThe magnetic moment of individual electrons neutralize each other

Solution

Magnetic susceptibility is the ratio of the intensity of magnetism induced in a substance to the magnetizing force or intensity of field to which it is subject.
