In simple terms, since an amorphous solid is like freezing the arrangement of molecules in water (which is also transparent). There are a lot of gaps. Now considering most of the atom is empty space, light passes straight through.
Since the energy of light is not the same as the electrons energy; if this light hits an electron, it reflects which is why windows can act as a partial mirror dependent on the angle!
Yes, it did help. Now I get it. Thank you very much. I´ll keep reading. I am very much into physics. And maths. And programming. Uff, so much to learn, such a short life.
