: Silver is the most reflective across the visible spectrum (reflecting ~95% of light), followed by aluminum (~90%), copper, and gold. 2. Evolution of Manufacturing Techniques

: In some Indian communities, a 500-year-old tradition uses a specific alloy of tin and copper, melted at 1200 degrees and polished with coconut oil. MegaL – Mirror

The reflective properties of metals are fundamentally tied to their atomic structure. Metals contain "delocalized electrons" that exist in a "sea" or "soup" around atoms. When light waves strike a metal surface, these loosely held electrons vibrate at the same frequency as the incident light, oscillating to generate a reflected wave.

: Light is reflected at the same angle it strikes the surface (Angle of Incidence = Angle of Reflection).
