Questions asked by users might not always be phrased in the clearest way.
Which have greater magnetic moments? Ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic moments
Accepted Answer
Ferromagnetic materials have greater magnetic moments than ferrimagnetic materials. In ferromagnetic materials, all the magnetic moments of the atoms align in the same direction, resulting in a strong net magnetic moment. In ferrimagnetic materials, the magnetic moments of the atoms are aligned in opposite directions, but the alignment of one direction is stronger than the other, resulting in a weaker net magnetic moment.
