In terms of transmissibility, the opposite of opaque is transparent. (Colloquially, clear.)

Answer

The definition of 'opaque' (NB as an adjective) in the Collins English Dictionary is as follows:- 1. Not transmitting light;

2. Not reflecting light;

3. Not transmitting radiant energy (e.g electromagnetic, sound);

4. Hard to understand; unintelligible;

This means that the opposite of 'opaque' would be:-

1. something that is good at transmitting light;

2. something that is good at reflecting light;

3. something that is good at transmitting radiant energy ;

4. Easy to understand; easily understood;

This means that the opposite of 'opaque' would be:-

1-3. Good at energy transfer;

4. Easy to understand; easily understood;

Depending on the context, 'opaque' can also mean something is 'foggy' , so this means that the opposite could be:

- mirrored

- bright

- shiny

- transparent

- clear
