The temperature at which domains of the ferromagnetic substance disorient is:

Correct answer: C. Curie Temperature

  • A. critical temperature
  • B. absolute temperature
  • C. Curie Temperature
  • D. normal temperature

Explanation

Ferromagnetic MATERIALS can be permanently magnetized. Curie Temperature: The temperature at which the ferromagnetic element starts to lose its magnetism and becomes paramagnetic. Understanding the above-stated facts, option 'C' is the correct answer.

About Crystalline and Amorphous Solids

Crystalline solids have a regular, repeating lattice and a sharp melting point, while amorphous solids lack long-range order and soften over a temperature range. The topic covers unit cells, anisotropy, cleavage, symmetry and examples such as salts, metals, glass and plastics. Crystalline order must not be confused with mere hardness.
