A full moon happens when?

When the side of the moon that faces Earth (the same side of the moon always faces Earth) is fully bathed in sunlight.

Does the moon have day and night if so why?

Just like the earth, the moon has a side that faces the sun (day) and a side that faces away from the sun (night). During a full moon, the side of the moon that faces the earth is lit by the sun and appears in daylight whereas the side of the moon that faces away from the earth is in shadow (night). During a new moon, the opposite is true. The side of the moon that faces the earth is in shadow (night) and the side that faces away from the earth is exposed to the sun (day).


Why can you not stand on earth and see the far side of the moon?

The Moon is tidally locked to Earth; the Moon's "day" and the Moon's month are the same length. So the "near side" of the Moon always faces the Earth, and the "far side" always faces away from Earth.
