It all has to do with air. Objects get their color by absorbing or reflecting different wavelengths of light. For instance, a banana absorbs all wavelengths of light except yellow, which it reflects back to your eye. White is the result of reflection of all colors. Snow and snowflakes are ice crystals mixed with air molecules. The air gaps between crystals, along with the crystals' complex shapes, bounces the light beams around so much that all the wavelengths eventually get reflected out, giving it a white color. Meanwhile, ice has very little air between the frozen water, allowing the light to pass through with minimal reflection -- although thick ice will eventually absorb the red colors, giving it a blue tinge.
Snow does not have a perfectly equal absorption though, red light is absorbed slightly better, giving it a blue hue. You can see this when you look at snow in the shadow.
When it snows, the sky appears white because the snow clouds reflect sunlight and scatter the light in various directions. This scattering effect makes the sky look white instead of its usual blue color.
A snowflake is white because it doesn't absorb any of the color spectrum. Because of this the light reflected still contains all of the colors and is viewed as white. If a snowflake were to absorb even one color, then it would be a completely different color
you need: * 3-5 pieces of glass, clear. no color * a water glass (must be made of glass). original cylinder shape, thick. * magnifier(optional) * CLEAR tape. (gift wrap kind, not whitish scotch original) experiment 1: take one piece of clear glass and place it on a flat surface. observe. take another piece and set it on top. observe, and so on.you will notice that the flat surface underneath the glass starts to get harder to see as you add more glass. it turns white. experiment 2: look at the bottom of the drinking glass. the glass is so thick, that it is hard to see clearly through. experiment 3: stick a piece of tape to another, then another, and so on. every time you add a piece, it is harder to see through.
because the sky is white like the snow which means the for hand is white science people go towww.wikipidea.com

Why do roads turn white after it snows even though there isn't any snow on the roads any more?
Roads turn white after it snows due to the presence of salt or brine solutions that are used to melt the snow and ice. These remnants can dry on the road surface, leaving a white residue. Additionally, the compacted snow and ice can create a lighter color on the road compared to the surrounding areas that have been cleared or plowed.
