Answer:

We can say that optical density is directly proportional to refractive index and inversely proportional to speed of light for that given medium. Complete Answer: Absolute refractive index is defined as the ratio of speed of light in vacuum to that in a given medium.

Refractive index compares the speed of light in a particular medium with the speed of light in vaccum. It measures the optical density of a medium. It should not be confused with the mass density of the medium. For turpentile oil, it's mass density is less than water but optical density is more than that of water.
And please give me thanks
