atomic configuration and magnetic properties of matter |
How can I understand atomic configuration of matter starting from atomic
configuration? How can I understand that Ag is diamagnetic starting from
from [Kr] 4d^10 5s^1?

Atoms are atomic theory. Molecules are molecular orbital theory.
Solid state is band structure, Fermi levels, and Brillouin zones.
Different beasts.

But you can tell something from atomic orbitals, for metals and
monatomic gases. Of course all inert gases are diamagnetic. Metalic
elements with unpaired electrons in non-bonding orbitals are generally
paramagnetic, at least.
