Which of these colours Black White absorbs heat and which keeps you cooler by reflecting it?

Black absorbs heat, and white reflects it. By heat, this is predominantly heat generated by light, such as sunlight or a lamp. Black is essentially the absence of light, so it absorbs the lights energy and converts it to heat. White is a complete reflection of the light being cast upon it, so more light is reflected off and it stays cooler.
