The magnetic susceptibility of a paramagnetic material is \(1.0 \times 10^{-5}\) at \(27^{\circ} C\) temperature. Then at what temperature its magnetic susceptibility would be \(1.5 \times 10^{-5}\) ?

  1. A \(18{ }^{\circ} C\)
  2. B \(200^{\circ} C\)
  3. C \(-73^{\circ} C\)
  4. D \(-18^{\circ} C\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(-73^{\circ} C\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

C
According to Curie law for paramagnetic substance
\(\chi_m \propto \frac{1}{T}\)
\(\frac{\chi_{m_1}}{\chi_{m_2}}=\frac{ T _2}{T_1}\)
\(\therefore \quad \frac{1.0 \times 10^{-5}}{1.5 \times 10^{-5}}=\frac{ T _2}{300}\)
\(\begin{aligned} T _2 =\frac{300}{1.5} \\ =200 K \\ =-73{ }^{\circ} C \end{aligned}\)
