I think you're talking about Venus
After the Moon, it is the brightest natural object in the night sky.
ONE of the smallest but brightest............same size as earth (about)
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are much larger than earth. Venus (slightly), Mars (by half) and Mercury are smaller than earth.
Superior planets (those outside Earth's orbit) appear brightest when they are at opposition, which is when they are on the opposite side of Earth from the Sun. This is when they are closest to Earth and fully illuminated by the Sun.
This is because sunlight is reflected by the planet's water
Not exactly. Venus is the closest to Earth in terms of size comparison, it is a little smaller.

because it has humans in it and humans need light
Neptune 4 times bigger than earth but slightly smaller than Uranus.

Venus is slightly smaller than Earth.
A planets visibility from Earth depends on its distance, distance from the sun and size. Smaller and/or further planets will be much dimmer. Venus can be the brightest, but it is much smaller than Uranus or Neptune for example. It is more visible due to it being much closer, and closer to the sun.
The sun and the moon are not planets. The sun is a star and the moon is a natural satellite. The brightest planet in Earth's sky is Venus.
3 of the 8 planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars) are smaller than Earth.
The Earth is the largest non-gas-giant planet in the solar system, placing it 5th of the 8 major planets in size. (Venus is slightly smaller.)
