Answer:

1.27

Explanation:

[tex]n_{g}[/tex] = Index of refraction of glass = 1.4

[tex]n_{e}[/tex] = Index of refraction of ethanol = ?

i = Angle of incidence = critical angle = 65° deg

r = Angle of refraction = 90° deg

Using Snell's law

[tex]n_{g}[/tex] Sini = [tex]n_{e}[/tex] Sinr

(1.4) Sin65 = [tex]n_{e}[/tex] Sin90

[tex]n_{e}[/tex] = 1.27
