Given below are two statements:
Statement-I: Susceptibilities of paramagnetic and ferromagnetic substances increase with decrease in temperature.
Statement-II: Diamagnetism is a result of orbital motions of electrons developing magnetic moments opposite to the applied magnetic field.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:-

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Both Statement-I and Statement-II are true

Option A (Both Statement-I and Statement-II are true) is correct because the susceptibility of paramagnetic and ferromagnetic materials increases as temperature decreases, and diamagnetism arises from electron orbital motion opposing the applied field.
