When a ray of light passes from a rarer to denser medium it bends towards the normal. (True=1 or false=0).

Solution
Laws of refraction;-
The incident ray,the refracted ray and the normal to the refracting surface at the point of incidence lie in the same plane.
For a given pair of media and for a given colour of light the ration between the sine of angle of incidence to the sine of refraction is a constant.This constant is known as refractive index of the second medium with respect to the first medium.
When a ray of light passes through a glass slab, ∠i,∠r and the normal all lie in the same plane. When a ray of light passes from one medium to another, here from air to glass or glass to air, the ratio sinisinr=constant.
