Why do we not see the moon during full moon?
The only reasons why you wouldn't be able to see the full moon would be that either it is daytime (the full moon rises at sunset, and sets at sunrise), or it is during totality of a lunar eclipse, or your eyes are closed. The full moon is the brightest thing in the night sky. It's almost possible to read by it.
Explain the difference between full moon and a new moon?
You see all of a full moon and it rises at the same time the sun sets. The new moon is only a sliver and is very close to the position of the sun. The full moon rises roughly 14 days after the new moon. The Moon appears full when it is further out in space or away from the Sun with respect to the Earth. The Moon appears new when it is between the Earth and the Sun. A full moon is when you can see the entire face of the moon lighted by the Sun. An astronomical new moon (also called a dark moon) is when the entire moon is between the Earth and the Sun such that the far side is lighted but the side toward us is dark and you can see no moon at all. These two events/phases are about 14 days apart. For further clarification visit the related link below. In the past a new moon was defined as when you could first see a tiny sliver of the moon but that meaning has changed in more modern societies. A full moon is a complete round moon. A new moon is a moon that is completely hidden from sight.

What is the difference between a full lunar eclipse and a partial lunar eclipse?
A lunar eclipse occurs when the normally full Moon crosses into the Earth's shadow, thereby creating a darkened area on the moon. During a partial lunar eclipse, only part of the Moon falls into the Earth's shadow. During a full lunar eclipse, the entire moon crosses through the earth's shadow, and therefore the entire moon is darkened.
