Can anyone link me to a table of a large amounts of different compounds with the magnetic susceptibility of each one?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Magnetic susceptibility is the measure of how easily a material can be magnetized in the presence of an external magnetic field. It is a dimensionless quantity and is typically denoted by the symbol χ (chi).
Magnetic susceptibility is measured using a device called a magnetic susceptibility balance, which applies a known magnetic field to a sample and measures the resulting magnetization. The ratio of the magnetization to the applied field is the magnetic susceptibility of the material.
The magnetic susceptibility of a compound can be affected by factors such as the electronic structure of the atoms, the presence of unpaired electrons, and the strength of intermolecular interactions. Temperature and pressure can also have an impact on the magnetic susceptibility of a material.
The magnetic susceptibility of a compound can vary greatly depending on its chemical composition and structure. For example, materials with strong intermolecular interactions tend to have a higher magnetic susceptibility than those with weak interactions. Additionally, compounds with unpaired electrons or transition metal ions tend to exhibit higher magnetic susceptibility.
Magnetic susceptibility measurements are commonly used in a variety of fields, including materials science, geology, and environmental science. They can be used to identify and characterize materials, study the magnetic properties of minerals and rocks, and determine the purity of substances. Magnetic susceptibility measurements can also be used to monitor changes in the environment, such as the presence of pollutants in water or soil.
