  2. Diamagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamagnetism

    Diamagnetic materials, like water, or water-based materials, have a relative magnetic permeability that is less than or equal to 1, and therefore a magnetic susceptibility less than or equal to 0, since susceptibility is defined as χ v = μ v − 1. This means that diamagnetic materials are repelled by magnetic fields.

  3. Group 12 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_12_element

    The group 12 elements are all soft, diamagnetic, divalent metals. They have the lowest melting points among all transition metals. [8] Zinc is bluish-white and lustrous, [9] though most common commercial grades of the metal have a dull finish. [10] Zinc is also referred to in nonscientific contexts as spelter. [11]

  4. Magnetochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetochemistry

    Magnetochemistry is concerned with the magnetic properties of chemical compounds and elements. Magnetic properties arise from the spin and orbital angular momentum of the electrons contained in a compound. Compounds are diamagnetic when they contain no unpaired electrons. Molecular compounds that contain one or more unpaired electrons are ...

  5. Bismuth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bismuth

    Bismuth is a chemical element with the symbol Bi and atomic number 83. It is a post-transition metal and one of the pnictogens, with chemical properties resembling its lighter group 15 siblings arsenic and antimony. Elemental bismuth occurs naturally, and its sulfide and oxide forms are important commercial ores. The free element is 86% as ...

  6. Magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet

    Diamagnetic means repelled by both poles. Compared to paramagnetic and ferromagnetic substances, diamagnetic substances, such as carbon, copper, water, and plastic, are even more weakly repelled by a magnet. The permeability of diamagnetic materials is less than the permeability of a vacuum. All substances not possessing one of the other types ...

  7. Germanium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germanium

    diamagnetic [7] Molar magnetic susceptibility: ... This element forms a large number of organogermanium compounds, such as tetraethylgermanium, ...

  8. Antimony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimony

    Antimony is a member of group 15 of the periodic table, one of the elements called pnictogens, and has an electronegativity of 2.05. In accordance with periodic trends, it is more electronegative than tin or bismuth , and less electronegative than tellurium or arsenic .

  9. Types of periodic tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_periodic_tables

    Its disadvantages are that it appears to group dissimilar elements, such as chlorine and manganese, together; the separation of metals and nonmetals is hard to discern; there are "inconsistencies in the grouping together of elements giving colorless, diamagnetic ions with elements giving colored, paramagnetic ions; and [a] lack of reasonable ...
