A ray of light is entering from medium 1 to medium 2. It is observed that the
refractive of medium 2 with respect to 1 is < 1. Based on the given information,
identify the rarer medium and denser medium.

Explanation:
When light travels from a denser medium to a rarer medium, it bends away from the normal, as illustrated to the left. This behavior follows from Snell's Law. As you saw before, the larger angle must be in the medium having the lower index of refraction.
