Why is diamagnetism, in contrast, almost independent of temperature?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In a diamagnetic sample, each molecule is not a magnetic dipole in itself. Therefore, random thermal motion of molecules does not affect the magnetism of the specimen. This is why diamagnetism is independent of temperature.
