Transparent materials let photons through because the energy gap of electron is so large that the photons cannot be absorbed. If the material absorbs a photon, the photon disappears; does this mean that its appearance is opaque? How about the colour white? In this case, does the material absorb photons?? Because white materials seem opaque most of the time.
