Water is optically denser than air .
Solution :
A medium is denser when the speed of light gets reduced when light travels through that medium.
When light travels through water, its speed gets reduced. Hence, it is a optically denser medium.
Speed of light in air is more than speed of light in water which means water is optically denser than air.
