Specific Refraction. a parameter characterizing the electronic polarizability of a unit mass of a substance in the high-frequency electromagnetic field of a light wave. The specific refraction r of a substance is equal to the substance's molecular refraction R divided by its molecular weight M.

aman2890: Molar refractivity, , is a measure of the total polarizability of a mole of a substance and is dependent on the temperature, the index of refraction, and the pressure. The molar refractivity is defined as. where is the Avogadro constant and is the mean polarizability of a molecule.

Definition of Specific refraction and molar refraction:

Explanation:

  • The specific refraction r of a substance is equal to the substance's molecular refraction R divided by its molecular weight M. The refractivity of a medium divided by its density.
  • It is a measure of the total polarizability of a mole of a substance and is dependent on the temperature, the index of refraction, and the pressure.
