Is the other side of the moon dark?
Yes, the other side of the moon is not always dark. It experiences day and night just like the side of the moon facing Earth. The term "dark side of the moon" refers to the side that is not visible from Earth, not to the side that is always in darkness.
How are the sun moon and Earth are positioned relative to each other during a new moon and how this alignment changes to produce a full moon?
During the new moon the Moon is between the Earth an the Sun. Hence only the side that cannot be seen from Earth is illuminated, making the moon appear dark. During the full moon the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon so sunlight falls on the side of the moon facing the Earth, making it appear bright.

If you stand on the moon can you see the earth from the moon and why?
It depends on where on the moon you are. If you are on the side of the moon facing Earth, yes. If you are on the side facing away, no. If you are on the Earth-facing side you can see Earth because there is nothing obstructing your view, and Earth is a good deal larger than the moon, which would make it a very prominent object in the sky. On the side facing away you cannot se Earth because the moon is blocking your view

Why is the moon invisible from earth during a new moon?

Part of the moon that is thinner on the side facing earth?
The crust of the Moon is thinner on the side facing the Earth because the Moon is tidally locked with the Earth. This means that the Moon rotates at exactly the same rate it revolves around the Earth, so only one side of the Moon ever faces the Earth. Since the gravity of Earth acts on the Moon, the crust has been pulled slightly towards Earth on the side of the Moon facing Earth. Because of this, the crust of the Moon is thinner on one side than the other.
