Question

why magnet attract only metals not non metals​

Answer 1

Answer:

Some metals are so weakly paramagnetic that their response to a magnetic field is hardly noticeable. The atoms align with a magnetic field, but the alignment is so weak that an ordinary magnet does not attract it. You couldn't pick up the metal with a permanent magnet, no matter how hard you tried.

☘️ Some metals are so weakly paramagnetic that their response to a magnetic field is hardly noticeable. The atoms align with a magnetic field, but the alignment is so weak that an ordinary magnet does not attract it.

☘️ You couldn't pick up the metal with a permanent magnet, no matter how hard you tried. However, you would be able to measure the magnetic field generated in the metal if you had a sensitive enough instrument. When placed in a magnetic field of sufficient strength, a bar of a a paramagnetic metal will align itself parallel to the field.
