A good Periodic Table will have a symbol telling you which elements are ferromagnetic (strongly attracted by magnets), paramagnetic (weakly attracted by magnets), or diamagnetic (weakly repelled by magnets).

Pyrolytic carbon is fairly strongly diamagnetic, as is bismuth. A lot of other elements (including Mercury, silver, lead and copper) are diamagnetic to a lesser degree.

I've linked to a table showing which are which for many (but not all) elements.
