Is Mno Antiferromagnetic Substance?

(R) MnO is an antiferromagnetic substance.

Is MnO antiferromagnetic?

Antiferromagnetism, type of magnetism in solids such as manganese oxide (MnO) in which adjacent ions that behave as tiny magnets (in this case manganese ions, Mn²⁺) spontaneously align themselves at relatively low temperatures into opposite, or antiparallel, arrangements throughout the material so that it exhibits ...

Is MnO Ferrimagnetic substance?

The antiparallel magnetic moments in both ferrimagnetic and antiferromagnetic materials can be explained by the superexchange behavior that occurs in oxide materials. Using manganese oxide, MnO, as an example, in its crystal oxygen ions, O^2-, sit between manganese ions, Mn²⁺, as shown schematically in the figure below.
