Light rays bend as they pass from air into water at an angle (not 90 degrees). this is refraction. air water normal incident ray refracted ray which quantity doesn't change when light refracts?

When light ray pass from air into water, its speed and wavelength change only the frequency of the light doesn't change.

Light travels slower in a medium of higher refractive index. It bends because of this change in speed. The wavelength of light also changes in order to maintain the constant frequency.

denser than water sinks in water.

denser than mercury would sink in it
