A material that reflects or absorbs any light that strikes it is opaque.
Tranlucent or transparent materials allow some or all light to pass through.
In scientific circles this is known as 'a black body'
It is an opaque object coloured black to absorb most of the light and a white opaque object to reflect it or even a mirror.

No material reflects all light. Silver is pretty close, which is why it is used for mirrors. As far as absorbing, porous black materials do the best job.
That depends on the material, its colour and the light. If you hit something red with red light it almost reflects everything, if you hit it with blue light, it gets almost completly absorbed.

All substances absorb and reflect light to varying degrees. Some also transmit light.
