Measuring the refractive index n of a substance or medium is part of various approaches that are used to determine this index. These approaches have been developed over the years based on the different ways light reflects and transmits in the medium.

One of those methods involves a spherical concave mirror filled with a liquid, which makes itself an excellent alternative to measure the refractive index of the liquid, especially when no advanced apparatuses are available, and the accuracy of the measurements is not critical.

In this experiment, we will be using the concave mirror method in order to determine the refractive index of water.
