Q1 of 50 Page 43

Which of the following materials has maximum optical density?

optical density is defined as the degree to which the refractive medium refracts the transmitted ray of light. Therefore, Medium having highest refractive index will have highest optical density.

For refractive indices,


Water (1.33) < pearl (1.46) < glass (1.52) < diamond (2.42)
