Why does a black brick possess more thermal energy than a white brick of the same size and material? At a minimum your answer should reference absorption.

Answer 1

This is due to their inability to reflect a large amount of energy. They reflect little solar heat and are hotter than light colors. These colors reflect solar and heat waves best due to their brightness.
