Explain why (I heard crown glass is very, very good) Explain why you chose your answer.

It isnt so much the material the prism is made of as the way it is cut. Think about it this way- look at a rough diamond. It looks like an ordinary rock until it is cut. The cut is one of the most important things that creates dispersion.
