Answer:

The refractive index of diamond is 2.42. This means that the speed of light in a diamond will reduce by a factor of 2.42 compared to its speed in air.

In other words, the speed of light in a diamond is 1/2.42 times the speed of light in a vacuum. Since the refractive index of diamond is quite high, it means that the diamond’s speed in diamond is deficient.
