Answer:

Materials like air, water, and clear glass are called transparent. When light encounters transparent materials, almost all of it passes directly through them. Glass, for example, is transparent to all visible light. Translucent objects allow some light to travel through them.

water-- Electrons in water act in a similar way to visible light so they don't absorb or reflect most of the light

air -- Compared to a solid, air contains very few atoms and is very light. Because air contains so few atoms, light waves run into very few of them when they shine through air.
