Solution

Sr. No.  Diamagnetic substance Paramagnetic substance
1. In an external magnetic field, a substance gets weakly magnetised in the direction opposite to that of the field. In an external magnetic field, a paramagnetic substance gets weakly magnetised in the same direction as that of the field.
2. When placed in a non-uniform magnetic field, it tends to move from the stronger to the weaker part of the field. When placed in a non-uniform magnetic field, it tends to move from the weaker to the stronger part of the field.
3. It is weakly repelled by a magnet.  It is weakly attracted by a magnet.
4. Magnetic moment of every atom of a diamagnetic substance is zero. Every atom of a paramagnetic substance is a magnetic dipole having a certain resultant magnetic moment.
5. When a rod of diamagnetic substance is suspended in a uniform magnetic field, it comes to rest with its length perpendicular to the direction of the field. When a rod of paramagnetic substance is suspended in a uniform magnetic field, it comes to rest with its length parallel to the direction of the field.
6. There is no effect of temperature on diamagnetic substance. There is effect of temperature on paramagnetic substance.
