Demonstrations on Paramagnetism with an Electronic Balance.
Cortel, Adolf
Journal of Chemical Education, v75 n1 p61-63 Jan 1998
A paramagnetic substance is attracted by a magnetic field with a force proportional to its magnetic susceptibility which is related to the number of unpaired electrons in the atoms. Data are used to establish oxidation states and bonding properties. Describes a simple setup to demonstrate the paramagnetism of common inorganic compounds. (DKM)
