Materials with a high reflective index, such as polished metals like silver or aluminum, reflect the most incident light. Additionally, materials with a smooth and shiny surface tend to reflect light more effectively than rough or matte surfaces.
Silver is the material that reflects the most light, as it has a high reflectivity across the visible spectrum. This is why silver is often used in mirrors and reflective surfaces.
Smooth, shiny surfaces like mirrors, glass, and polished metals reflect the most incident light due to their high level of reflectivity. Rough or matte surfaces tend to scatter or absorb more light.
A material that reflects or absorbs any light that strikes it is opaque.Tranlucent or transparent materials allow some or all light to pass through.
When light strikes an opaque material, the photons are absorbed by the material, causing its atoms or molecules to vibrate or heat up. The material then reflects or absorbs the light energy, depending on its properties. If the material absorbs more light energy than it emits, it will heat up. If it reflects more light, it will appear as a non-shiny surface.
A sheet of paper appears white because it reflects most of the light that hits it. The material that makes up the paper scatters the light in different directions, giving it a white appearance to our eyes.

Violet reflects the most light energy because it absorbs the most light energy. The amount of energy that is absorbed and captured by the pigment of shorter wavelengths is also used to do work or "energy".

Yellow is the color that reflects the most amount of light, resulting in a light value.
Just like any other dark grey object, the moon absorbs most of the sunlight incident on it, and reflects the rest.
Shiny surfaces do not absorb light because they have a smooth surface that reflects most of the light that hits them. This reflection prevents the light from being absorbed into the material, giving it a shiny appearance.
A rainbow is composed of light. Light does not reflect light.
An object appears charcoal when it has absorbed most of the incident light and reflects very little back to our eyes. This lack of reflected light makes the object appear dark and nearly black in color.
Most of the materials that are shiny is because almost all the incident light is reflected back. Aluminum foil shines more than a sheet of lead because aluminum has less rigid area on its outer surface reflecting light effectively. Opaque glass slab also reflects almost all of the incident light.
