Answer:
Two conditions are:-
1. If the refractive indices of two
media is equal.
2. If it falls normally on the surface separating the two media.

When i = 0
Explanation:
When the incident ray follows the normal drawn perpendicularly on the junction plane of 2 mediums, there is no refraction.
In the above scenario, the angle of incidence i becomes zero. That is the angle between the incident ray and the normal is 0. When i = 0, angle of refraction 'r' is also zero. That is the angle between the refracted ray and the normal is 0. Thus no change in direction occurs.
