This paper is a simple idea aims to how to get an imagination about the variation of glass refractive index with its internal structure. In the present work an empirical equation for the refractive index of a glass sample has been achieved as function of both the glass molar Volume and the glass electronegativity. Like this equation, may be used to determine and estimate the refractive index value of an inorganic oxide glass sample, if its density measured with high accuracy.
