The correct option is C

Black


  1. The colors we see in our daily life are formed as they absorb most of the light fell on them and reflect a particular wavelength of light, That particular wavelength of light has a particular color which we see as that object's color.
  2. White and Black are at extremes in the absorption of light, White absorbs no light it reflects everything that falls on it, whereas Black on the other hand absorbs everything that falls on it.
  3. This concludes that the White absorbs the least energy and the Black absorbs the highest energy.
