When light passes into the slab it is changing medium from less to more dense. When that happens the light slows down and bends towards from the normal
a light ray is refracted when it passes from one medium to another at an angle and its speed changes. at the interface , it is bent in one direction if the material enters in denser and in the other direction if less dense.
It will bend (refract) because light slows down a bit when it passes from a less dense to a more dense environment.
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.
When a wave passes from a less dense medium to a denser one, most of the wave energy is answer is reflected FALSE

When traveling through a dense material, light doesn't necessarily bend at all.The bend occurs at the boundary between two different materials, and whetherit bends away from the normal or toward it depends on both of their densities.

The answer depends on what on earth you mean by the "dirtier" of a wave.
The light bends when it passes from one medium to another. But only if it approaches the interface at an angle. In such a case it will still travel slower, but there will be no apparent bending.

less than the angle of reflection
It will bend (refract) because light slows down a bit when it passes from a less dense to a more dense environment.
Light slows as it enters material with a higher density whereas sound waves speed up in materials of higher density. Light bends towards the "normal" as it passes from a less dense medium to a higher density medium ie air into glass. Both sound and light can be reflected from surfaces.
Cooler material is more dense and hotter material is less. This means that plates become more dense as they cool.
