The magnetic susceptibility of a paramagnetic substance at -173 °C is 1.5×10-2. To have the susceptibility 0.5×10-2, the change in temperature in °C is
  1. 100
  2. 180
  3. 200
  4. 220

Solution

Given:

xm=1.5×10-2

T1=173 °C+273=100 K

From Curie's Law,

xm1T

xm1xm2=T2T1

Substitute the values in the above equation

1.5×10-20.5×10-2=T2100

T2=300 K

T2=300 K-273

T2=27 °C

The change in temperature is,

ΔT=T1-T

=27 °C--173 °C

=200 °C
