Which mechanism causes paramagnetism in molecules with unbound electrons?

💡 Explanation

Unpaired electrons in molecular orbitals cause paramagnetism because they align their spins when an external field is applied due to Hund's rule; therefore spin orbital alignment increases magnetism, rather than vibrational modes or shielding changes, which do not result in this attraction.
