Answer 2

Referred to a color's brightness.

Tone in publishing refers to the shading of light and dark on an object. When we discuss the element of tone, we discuss light and dark. Color’s brightness on the other hand is the relative lightness or darkness of a certain color. Brightness is normally influenced by a color’s lightness and thus, tone is the color’s brightness.
