- Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): Refractive index of glass is more than air.
Reason (R): Optical density of a medium is directly related to its mass density.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.- JEE Main - 2025
