Ferrimagnetism/ferromagnetism arises due to unequal number of domains in oppsite direction resulting in net magnetic moment.

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Concepts**: - Ferrimagnetism and ferromagnetism are two types of magnetic ordering in materials. Both involve the alignment of magnetic domains, which are regions within a material where the magnetic moments of atoms are aligned in a particular direction. 2. **Ferrimagnetism**: - In ferrimagnetic materials, there are unequal numbers of magnetic domains that align in opposite directions. This means that some domains point in one direction while others point in the opposite direction. - Because of this unequal alignment, there is a net magnetic moment in the material. The magnetic moments that point in the same direction partially cancel out the moments that point in the opposite direction, leading to a net magnetic effect. ...
