1. The induced diamagnetic moment of an electron in an atom is given by qē (r.)2 B HL 6me where qe and me are the electronic charge and electron mass, respectively, (ro) is the mean atomic radius and B is the magnetic field. Bismuth has an atomic radius of 0.155 nm and its atomic number Z=83. The atomic weight of bismuth is 209 gm/mol and its density is 9.78 g/cm'. 131 (a) Calculate the diamagnetic susceptibility of bismuth. (b) Compare, and comment, your answer with the experimental value for bismuth of x = -1.7x10-4 [2] 121 (c) Lead has atomic number of 82 but its diamagnetic susceptibility is more than ten times smaller than bismuth. Discuss why this could be so.
