Index of refraction of crown glass is 1.5

Snell's law

n1sinθ1=n2sinθ21×sin35=1.5×sinθ20.5736=1.5×sinθ2sinθ2=0.57361.5=0.3824θ2=22.482  degreen_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2 \\ 1 \times sin 35 = 1.5 \times sin \theta_2 \\ 0.5736 = 1.5 \times sin \theta_2 \\ sin \theta_2 = \frac{0.5736}{1.5} =0.3824 \\ \theta_2 = 22.482 \; degree
