Detailed Solution

Diamond has an optical density of 2.42 and so has the highest refractive index.
The Refractive index is assessed by the bending of light. The material with the highest optical density has a higher refractive index. So, the diamond will have the highest refractive index out of the air, water, ice, and diamond.
