Optical  Properties of Metals ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
[object Object],[object Object],Opaque metals
Highly reflective metals ,[object Object]
Silver and Gold Silver is silver because when it is exposed to white light, it reflects almost all of the light. Gold is gold because  some of the energy associated with light photons having short wavelengths is not reemitted as visible light.
Optical Properties of Nonmetals Nonmetallic materials may absorb, reflect, refract or transmit light depending on their electron energy band structures
Refraction ,[object Object],[object Object],, = velocity in a medium = velocity in vacuum
