Amateur -1 Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 I have a question about something that I read way back in 1956 or 57 in the only chemistry class that I ever had. The best that can remember is that each and every element have a magnetic moment at a given temperature mostly in the low -200 F°. If so would this be possible , a Gold magnet. Please see the attachment.
Klaynos Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 I think they might have been talking about the curie temperature. Below which ferromagnetic materials are ferromagnetic. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie_temperature This does not apply to all materials. Gold is I believe paramagnetic for which I am not aware of a temperature dependence but there may be one. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paramagnetism
