Document Summary

Atomic nuclei with odd mass numbers have angular momentum and behave as though they were spinning on an axis, that is, they behave as a tiny magnet. In the absence of an applied field, these tiny magnets are randomly oriented, but when they are put in the presence of an applied magnetic field (ho), they will align with or against that field. A slight excess will align with the field ( -spin) while the others will be anti parallel ( -spin). (cid:149) 1h has a spin quantum number i = 1/2 and has allowed spin states of +1/2 or -1/2. 1 (cid:149) other nuclei with i = 1/2 are 13c, 19f and 31p and these also respond to an external magnetic field (cid:149) the nuclei of nmr-active nuclei behave like tiny bar magnets (cid:149) These concepts apply to 1h, 13c, and 19f nuclei which have spin quantum numbers of.
