Materials like glass, clear plastics, and water allow all light to penetrate through them without significant absorption or scattering. This means that these materials are transparent to a wide range of light wavelengths, allowing light to pass through easily.
Materials that allow all light to penetrate through them are called transparent materials. This means that light passes through them easily without being absorbed or scattered. Some examples of transparent materials include glass, clear plastic, and water.
Opaque materials.
A material through which light (or a certain color of light) won't pass through is said to be OPAQUE for light (or for that color of light). Most materials around us are opaque for visible light; only a few materials, such as air and other gases, water, and glass, are transparent, meaning they do let light through.
Opaque materials do not let light pass through them; they block or absorb light instead. This is because the atoms and molecules in opaque materials are closely packed together, preventing light from passing through the material.

example: tracing paper. translucent materials let some light through but not all of it

Light can pass through some materials. An example of a material like this would be glass. It cant go through all materials. When materials let light through, we call that transparency.

Opaque.
There are many materials that light can not travel through which are called opaque objects.
metal
glass
An object that lets no light pass through is called opaque. This means that light is unable to penetrate or pass through the object, resulting in the absence of transparency.
