Refractive index for water, mustard oil, glycerine and kerosene are:
$µ_{w} = 1.33$
$µ_{m} = 1.47$
$µ_{g} = 1.473$
$µ_{k} = 1.44$
Since refractive index of glycerine is highest, ray bends the most in case of glycerine.

Refractive index for water, mustard oil, glycerine and kerosene are:µw?=1.33µm?=1.47µg?=1.473µk?=1.44Since refractive index of glycerine is highest, ray bends the most in case of glycerine.
