Depends on the refractive index of the medium itself
About 2/3 its speed in a vacuum.
3/4th
It will depend on the type of glass, and something called its refractive index. All materials have a refractive index which will effect the speed of the light through it. The speed of light through a vacuum is 3.0x10^8 m/s, and a material such as glass will be lower than this.
There are several different types of glass, and light has a somewhat different speed in each of them. On the average, the speed of light across all typical types of glass is in the neighborhood of 2/3 its speed in vacuum, or around 200,000 km/sec .

In glass, light will go somewhat slower than in a vacuum. Air is almost like a vacuum, with respect to the speed of light - some difference still exists, though.In glass, light will go somewhat slower than in a vacuum.

light in a vacuum
No, slower.
No
No
Light's apparent speed is fastest definitely in a vacuum and slower in water or glass. Light in air behaves more like in a vacuum than in water or glass.
