Answer:

Density of kerosene is less than that of water

Explanation:

The refractive indices of kerosene and water are 1.44 and 1.33 respectively. This means, kerosene is optically denser than water. Now, mass density of kerosene is 810 kg/m3 and that of water 998 kg/m3. It means, mass density of water is more than that of kerosene.
