In the light of given statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
Multiple Choice Options
- A Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is true.
- B Statement I is correct but Statement II is false.
- C Both Statement I and Statement II are False.
- D Both Statement I and Statement II are true.
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Statement I : The diamagnetic property depends on temperature. This statement is incorrect. Diamagnetism is an intrinsic property of materials that arises due to the presence of completely filled electron shells. It does not depend on temperature.
Statement II : The induced magnetic dipole moment in a diamagnetic sample is always opposite to the magnetizing field. This statement is true. Diamagnetic materials have a negative magnetic susceptibility, which means that they oppose the applied magnetic field. This results in the induced magnetic dipole moment being always opposite to the magnetizing field.
Statement II : The induced magnetic dipole moment in a diamagnetic sample is always opposite to the magnetizing field. This statement is true. Diamagnetic materials have a negative magnetic susceptibility, which means that they oppose the applied magnetic field. This results in the induced magnetic dipole moment being always opposite to the magnetizing field.
