Answer:

Crown glass. The material which the velocity of light greatest is AIR. Because the speed of light in crown glass is the speed of light in a vacuum divided by the index of refraction of crown glass, which is 1.52. This works out to 1.97 times 10 to the 8 meters per second is the speed of light in crown glass.
