There is no definite answer to this question. It more of a science fact that has yet to be explained in full depth. Because white is the presence of all colors, it reflects all the light. Whereas black, the opposite color, would induce an opposite affect by absorbing all the light. This is why it isn't possible to have a flashlight that emits black rays.

Bonds in molecules absorb light, In black the bonds absorb a lot of visible light frequencies. As black only reflects few frequencies of visible light. it gains it black colour.
Does white or black absorb the light?

Can white reflect black or does black absorb white?
Black surfaces absorb all light. White surfaces do not "reflect black" as there's no such thing as black light.
What is the difference between the way black and white surfaces affect light?
White surfaces reflect light and heat. Black surfaces do not reflect light and they absorb heat.White surfaces reflect light and heat. Black surfaces do not reflect light and they absorb heat.White surfaces reflect light and heat. Black surfaces do not reflect light and they absorb heat.White surfaces reflect light and heat. Black surfaces do not reflect light and they absorb heat.
Why black colour absorb and radiate more heat?
The objects is black when no light reflect from it, hence, it absorb light very well. And at the same time, what can absorb light very well would radiate heat very well .

Objects that absorb all light are what color?
black
The color black is said to be able to absorb the most light and produce the most heat why is this?
the reason is all light colors for example white, yellow don't absorb light they just reflect it, but dark colors absorb it the light and black being the darkest color absorbs the must heat and light.
Why do black cars absorb heat?
Actually, any black object will absorb sunlight - that's why we see it black, because less visible light is reflected.
Do darker colours absorb light?
yes dark colors like black absorb more light and radiation than light colors and white. black absorbs all visible light and white reflects back all visible light
