Need help to know what these clear rocks are

Sure looks like quartz to me.

Quartz is what i think it may be

Not all of them look like Quartz... I don't remember Quartz having Pitts the clear ones appear to be pitted which is a good indicator of hardness. Try to scratch them with a known piece of Quartz and see what that does ?

Knowing the location where they were found would be a help to anyone trying to identify.

The pitting probably is from erosion. Quartz, perhaps some chalcedony in there to.

Slag glass comes in all colors and can look pitted at times. Not saying it is slag but could be. I find white to clear in my area in the creeks.

Looks like quarts to me. Very eroded. Im guessing you found them in a stream bed?

Possibly Quartz, Topaz and some Agates.
