Clouds are a collection of super-cooled water and ice crystals. As light shines towards clouds, a percentage is reflected by the water/ice. Yet some light and UV radiation still slips through.

Many clouds have a high albedo therefore tend to?
reflect sunlight

reflect sunlight
What can clouds do to send sunlight back to space?
The white top of clouds will reflect much of the sun's ray back into space.

What causes clouds to reflect a portion of sunlight back to space?
Clouds can reflect some light back to space depending on the water content in the clouds. The water causes a prism which reflects light back into space.
Many clouds reflect on a lot of sun light because they have an high?
Clouds have high albedos.

What causes clouds to reflect sunlight back to space?
White or light coloured surfaces, of which a cloud is an example, reflects sunlight, while dark surfaces absorb sunlight and heats up.
What are two ways in which clouds affect Earth's climate?
The pattern of precipitation and low altitude clouds, which are thick and reflect more sunlight
Many clouds have albedo?
Yes, everything has albedo. Albedo refers to the reflectivity of any object or substance. White clouds have a high albedo - they reflect a lot of light. Dark clouds have a lower albedo; they don't reflect as much.
How do clouds keep the earth cool during the day?
They reflect sunlight back into space rather than reaching the ground and heating it up.
