I thought it would be nice to have a discussion board for MCAT topics/questions causing trouble for those studying for the MCAT.
Here goes my first one:
Paramagnetism vs. Diamagnetism:
-Diamagnetism
substance attracted to inducing magnetic field due to UNPAIRED ELECTRONS
-Paramagnetism
Substance repelled due to ALL PAIRED electrons
Question: Why is Sulful Diamagnetic and Not Iron?
