When a wave passes from a less dense medium to a denser one, most of the wave energy is answer is reflected FALSE
Light bends when it passes at an angle into a medium of a different density. When light passes from a less dense medium into a denser medium, like from space into Earth's atmosphere or from air into water, it bends toward the normal, which is an imaginary line perpendicular to the boundary between the two media where the light passes through. Light passing from a denser medium to a less dense medium bends away from the normal.
reflected
It means that the wave changes direction when it passes from one medium to another - for example, from air to water, or from denser air to less dense air.
Optical dense refers to the index of refraction. If one medium is optically denser than another, then its index of refraction is larger, meaning the speed of light in the optically denser medium is smaller.

If you meant optical density by the term 'denser ' Then the answer is.... The light bends towards normal when it travels from a optically less dense medium to optically dense medium. So angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction

refracted False
slows down in denser mediums & speeds up in less dense ones this explains why ur voice is so high pitched when u inhale a less dense gas like helium & why sound is deep & distorted underwater.
