Nickel shows ferromagnetic property at room temperature. If the temperature is increased beyond Curie temperature, then it will show:
Options
- Aanti ferromagnetism
- Bno magnetic property
- Cdiamagnetism
- Dparamagnetism.
Correct answer
D. paramagnetism.
Step-by-step solution
Nickel exhibits ferromagnetism due to a quantum physical effect called exchange coupling.
If the temperature of a ferromagnetic material is raised above a certain value, called curie temperature, the coupling ceases to be effective.
Most such material then becomes simply paramagnetic.
Hence option (D) is the correct answer.
