To answer the question, we need to fill in the blank regarding how one surface of a mirror is made opaque. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Mirror Construction**: A mirror typically consists of a reflective surface that reflects light. To make one surface opaque, we need to apply a material that prevents light from passing through. 2. **Identifying the Process**: The process used to create a reflective surface on a mirror is known as "silvering." This involves applying a thin layer of silver to the glass surface, which allows it to reflect light effectively. ...
