- Magnetic materials are broadly classified into
- Paramagnetic
- Diamagnetic
- Ferromagnetic based on the intensity of magnetization
- The given table below shows the behavior of each material in the external magnetic field.

Behavior in Magnetic field |
When placed in a magnetic field get feebly magnetized in the direction of the applied field. These feebly magnetized materials tend to move from the weaker to the stronger region of the magnetic field. |
When placed in a magnetic field gets feebly magnetized in the direction of the applied field. |
When placed in a magnetic field get strongly magnetized in the direction of the applied field. |

Examples |
Al, Na, Cucl2 |
Cu, Pb, Sn |
Fe, Co, Gd |
EXPLANATION:
- The presence of unpaired electron in orbit causes the material to exhibit paramagnetism
- Most of the materials have an unpaired electron in their outer orbits
- Hence, most of the materials exhibit paramagnetism. Hence, option 2 is the answer.
