What is the term for the way a mineral reflects light?
That would be the degree of luster.
The reflective quality of a surface is known as its?
Albedo is the fraction of solar energy (shortwave radiation) reflected from the Earth back into space. The albedo of an object is a measure of how strongly it reflects light from light sources such as the sun. It is therefore a more specific form of the term reflectivity.

What happens when light hits a white surface?
By calling it a "white surface", you've already described what happens. A large fraction of the light, regardless of its wavelength, reflects from the surface, and very little of it, regardless of its wavelength, is absorbed. If any of this were appreciably different, then the surface would not be white.
What term refers to that light which reflects at an angle equal to its incidents?
Reflected light!

What is reflectivity of a surface called?
One term often used in Astronomy is the albedo. It refers to the percentage or fraction of incoming light that is reflected.
