31. + yields a similar result for 0. 5 ≤ x ≤ 0. 7. The inverse susceptibilityof x = 0. 8 is not linear in any temperature range, and thus a Curie-Weiss fit is not applicable.
32. 4 = 7. 916 eV; single-electron spin-orbit coupling constant: ζ = 74 meV.
33. A small constant van Vleck contribution is subtracted from the calculations.
