Whenever light, while traveling through a medium such as air, encounters a substance with a different index of refraction, some light will pass and some will reflect off the surface. The angle, and the difference in the two indexes will determine the reflective properties of the glass. Specifically, light is composed of alternating electromagnetic waves. When you solve Maxwell's equations for these waves encountering a surface, reflection is discovered.
