Why was it important to cover each beaker with a piece of aluminum foil?

A smooth piece of aluminum foil can be seen in your reflection but why not the crumpled piece?
Take a makeup mirror, and look at yourself in the mirror. Then, rotate that mirror by about 10 degrees. What do you see happen to the image in the mirror? Now, take a ball of foil and examine its surface closely. The light reflects off each small area in a different direction. As with a mirror, the light rays are reflected back in parallel from the polished side of aluminum foil. But when it is crumpled, the rays reflect in many directions from the angular facets.

Why might a tightly crumpled ball of foil sink but a flat piece of foil of the same mass float in water?
A tightly crumpled ball of foil might sink in water because it's density is greater than water. When foil is flat it's density is less than water and it will float.

What is more reflective toward radiation mirror or aluminum foil?
I would have to say aluminum foil, since radiation can travel through glass. radiation is reflected from the surface of aluminum foil. With a mirror the radiation has to travel through a small layer of glass twice before the mirror is finished with it. Glass is not totally transparent, some light is absorbed so the naked aluminum reflects better.
