* By exposing atoms to a magnetic field and RF of a given frequency, we can put them into '''resonance'''. This can be measured, and is the basis for the technique.

In spite of nature of the nucleus of an atom being crucial to NMR in that the technique is only useful with certain configurations of the nucleus, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJhVotrZt9I the electrons of an atom do influence how much an atom is diamagnetically shielded from the effects of RF.]
Taken a step further:<br>
