Magnetic susceptibility is a measure of how much a material is magnetized in response to an applied magnetic field. It's a fundamental property in inorganic chemistry, indicating how strongly a substance interacts with magnetic fields. Materials can be classified as diamagnetic (weakly repelled by magnets), paramagnetic (weakly attracted to magnets), or ferromagnetic (strongly attracted to magnets).
