Which term describes substances that absorb some wavelengths of light?
Pigment is a substance that absorbs some wavelengths of lights and reflects other, giving something its color. Chlorophyll is the green substance that absorbs light and provide energy for photosynthesis.
What pigment reflects green light and absorbs other colors of light to provide energy for photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll is the pigment that reflects green light and absorbs other colors of light to provide energy for photosynthesis in plants.
Colored material that absorbs some colors but reflects others?
This material can be described as having selective absorption and reflection of light. It absorbs certain colors from the light spectrum and reflects the remaining colors, leading to the perception of a particular color by our eyes. Examples include pigments, dyes, and colored filters.
What wavelength of light does chlorophyll a reflect?
There are 2 different types of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll "a" absorbs light in the violet and red regions of the visible spectrum while chlorophyll "b" absorbs light in the blue and red regions of the visible spectrum.
Chlorophyll absorbs which color of light?
Chlorophyll primarily absorbs red and blue light and reflects green light, giving plants their green color.
Does light colored clothing refract or reflect light?
Light colored clothing reflects more light compared to dark colored clothing, which absorbs more light. Light colored clothing appears brighter because it reflects a higher percentage of light that hits it, giving it a lighter appearance.
What best defines the physical property of color?
A measure of how a substance absorbs and reflects light

Is a bloom is a substance that absorbs light?
a bloom is a substance that absorbs light
Why do light colored buildings stay cooler in summer?
White (or lighter colors) reflects light while black (or darker colors) absorbs it as heat.
What colored compound in plants that absorbs light?
Plants absorb more blue and red light from sunlight, and less green light. Chlorophyll is green, because it reflects green light
Which substance is one which absorbs or reflects any light that strikes it?
All substances absorb and reflect light to varying degrees. Some also transmit light.
What happens when white light is shone onto a coloured object?
The object reflects the colour(s) you see and absorbs the rest. This is why black objects get hotter in the sun than white objects. The white 'colour' reflects much more energy (especially infra-red) whilst the black object absorbs more energy (especially infra-red).
What is an object absorbs or reflects all light?
An object that absorbs all light appears black because it absorbs all colors of light equally. An object that reflects all light appears white because it reflects all colors of light equally.
What happens when light shines on different coloured objects?
When light shines on different colored objects, each object absorbs certain wavelengths of light and reflects others. The reflected light is what we see as the color of the object. For example, a red object absorbs most light wavelengths except for red, which it reflects. Therefore, we perceive the object as red.
What are colored compound that absorbs light?
the answer is pigments
What are colored chemicals that absorbs light?
the answer is pigments
