Diamagnetism arises in atoms whose electrons have no net:
AKinetic energies
BOrbital motions
CMagnetic moment
DElectric charge
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Magnetic moment
1. Paired electrons cancel each other's contribution.
2. Only an induced response is left.
3. So such atoms carry no net magnetic moment.
4. The answer is magnetic moment.
