1⃣ I am no expert in these things. But here is what my limited knowledge tells me. Take a thin piece/sheet of colourless glass and coat one side of it with a reflective material (generally silver or aluminum).

2⃣ Of course lots of other intermediate processes are carried on as well (source Wikipedia) since silver would not bond with glass directly. Earlier mercury used to be used too.

3⃣No when light falls on the side of the glass not coated, the light rays pass through the glass, reflect on the reflective coating, change direction, again pass through the glass and come out on the same side from which the rays first fell on the glass. The glass is just the substrate to hold the reflective coating. Instead of glass the substrate can be a sheet of clear plastic or something like that as well.

4⃣In ancient times metal plates made of brass or silver or gold used to be polished to such an extent as to work as mirror. Of course it was not as good as modern mirror.

Hope it will help you in your future⚠️

Answer:

In a plane mirror, silver is coated on one end of the mirror, which allows the light to reflect.

Explanation:

Therefore, to convert a piece of sheet into a plane mirror, just coat one side of it using silver.
