All genuine 1977 cents were struck in bronze, which is not magnetic.
If your coin sticks to a magnet it has either been plated with enough nickel or other magnetic metal to stick, or it was struck in a different metal altogether.
If it's a different metal, you either have a fantasy piece someone made privately, or possibly an error that's called an off-metal strike. That error occurs when a blank for a foreign coin accidentally gets mixed in with normal blanks at the Mint. Off-metal strikes can be worth a premium, but you'd need to have your coin inspected by a professional coin dealer or grader in order to tell if you have a true error, a fake, or just an altered coin.
No, gray and silver are not the same color. Gray is a mixture of black and white, while silver is a metallic color with a shiny appearance.
No, dull silver surfaces may emit less radiation than shiny white surfaces because the reflectivity of a material affects its ability to absorb and emit radiation. Shiny white surfaces reflect more radiation compared to dull silver surfaces that may absorb and emit more radiation.
No, silver is not translucent. Silver is a metal that is known for its shiny, reflective surface and its high level of conductivity for both heat and electricity. It does not allow light to pass through it easily.
Silver and gray are similar in color, but they are not exactly the same. Silver is a metallic color with a shiny, reflective quality, while gray is a duller, more matte shade.
Mercury is greyish white. In fact Copper and Gold are the only metals that are not white/grey.
There is actually no such thing as a 1973 'silver' penny. However, there are some Lincoln pennies from 1973-74 that have a shiny, silver-like look. These pennies are worth about $1.25.
The hot solution likely removed the copper oxide layer on the penny, revealing the silver-colored zinc underneath. Heating caused a chemical reaction that removed the tarnished layer on the penny, giving it a shiny appearance.
Yes silver is shiny.

Pour some vinegar in a jam bottle . Put the penny in it for a while .It will become shiny again.
Silver is a shiny, white metal that is softer and more malleable than iron, which is a dull gray metal with a harder and more resistant structure. You can also use a magnet to distinguish between the two, as iron is magnetic whereas silver is not.
It's made of steel, not silver, and it's shiny because it's plated in zinc. If it still has a full zinc coating, it's worth around 50 cents.

A silver bracelet looks shiny because of its metallic luster. The smooth surface of the silver reflects and refracts light in a way that creates a shiny appearance. Additionally, the natural properties of silver make it highly reflective, adding to its shiny appearance.
