- Ferromagnetic
- Paramagnetic
- Antiferromagnetic
- Diamagnetic
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: D. Diamagnetic
All electrons in ozone are paired, so it is diamagnetic unlike dioxygen.

Worked practice questions
Ozone is prepared in the laboratory by passing what through dry oxygen?
- A hot glowing metal wire
- Silent electric discharge
- Strong ultraviolet light
- A stream of dry steam
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: B. Silent electric discharge
Silent electric discharge in an ozoniser converts part of the oxygen into ozone.
About how much of the oxygen is converted to ozone in an ozoniser?
- About 90 %
- Only 10 %
- About 50 %
- Only 1 %
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: B. Only 10 %
The conversion is only about 10 percent, so the product is called ozonised oxygen.
