Paramagnetism: Compounds - Zinc(II) Sulfate Heptahydrate


ZnSO4

Zinc(II) sulfate heptahydrate is brought near the poles of the magnet. As in the case of the sodium chloride, there is no attraction between the zinc sulfate and the magnet. The degree of paramagnetism of these compounds of the transition metals can be correlated with the number of unpaired electrons in their metal ions.
