Because at the time of each new moon, the earth is blocking the light from the sun from reflecting off the surface of the moon.

I disagree.
At the moment of "new moon," and when there is also not a solar eclipse going on (which can only happen at new moon), you cannot see the moon because you would have to look almost directly at the Sun to view it. The Sun's brightness and glare prevents you from seeing the unlit side of the Moon presented toward Earth.
The time when Earth's shadow blocks the Sun's light from reaching the Moon is called a lunar (opposite of solar) eclipse. This can only happen at full moon; however, it never results in the Moon being invisible. The Moon will always be visible during the deepest lunar eclipse because of Earth's atmosphere, which bends and refracts some of the Sun's light onto the moon's surface.
You cannot see the moon at or near the moment of "new moon" because the bright Sun is almost directly "behind" it from our point of view.
What else can I help you with?
How much of the moon bright side can you see during a new moon?
During the new moon you can't see no bright side because the sun is facing away from the moon.
What do you see during a new moon?
The moon cycle starts over.
What phase of the moon can you not see?
During the new moon phase, the side of the moon facing Earth is not illuminated by the sun, making it impossible to see.
Is the amount of the lighted side of the moon you can see the same during full and new moon phase?
No, during a full moon, we see the entire lighted side of the moon, whereas during a new moon, the lighted side of the moon is facing away from Earth so we see no lighted side at all.
Why can't we see the moon during the new moon phase?
The sun is not reflecting on the moon
Why can you not see the new moon?
We only see the Moon because it reflects light from the Sun. During a new moon, the far side is illuminated, and the near side is not.
What type of moon is during a solar eclipse?
We see solar eclipses only during New Moon, but not every New Moon is accompanied by a solar eclipse.
Is it a solar or lunar eclipse when you can't see the moon?
well by you can't see the moon, I think you mean new moon. You have a new moon during a solar eclipse (moon is blocking the sun)
What can't you see during a New Moon?
The lunar surface.
Which shape of the moon will you never see during the daytime sunrise or sunset?
You will never see a new moon during daytime sunrise or sunset. During the new moon phase, the moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, making it nearly invisible from our perspective. Consequently, it does not reflect sunlight and is not visible in the sky during those times.
The amount of lighted side of the moon you can see is the same during?
The amount of lighted side of the moon you can see is the same during first quarter and third quarter phases. These phases occur when half of the moon's surface is illuminated, and they represent the halfway points between new moon and full moon phases.
Why can't we see the moon in a new moon day?
Because a new moon is between the sun and the earth. Therefore, we see the shaded side of the moon whch disappears during the daytime. A new moon can be seen with a very high power telescope, but not with the unaided eye.
