What is electromagenetic spectrum mean?
band of colours obtained by the diffraction of light
What is the bending of waves around the edge of a barrier called?
Diffraction is the bending of waves around an obstacle under specific circumstances.
Which term describes the bending of a wave around an object?
"Diffraction" does.
What is the bending of waves as it passes at an angle from one medium to another?
Diffraction.

Why diffraction occur?
Diffraction example: you run or bounce into somthing and, the wave goes around the object. This is called diffraction.
What is the principles of x ray diffraction?
The idea is that, due to the small wavelength of X-rays, atoms can serve as a diffraction grid - causing diffraction patterns. (If you don't know about diffraction, I suggest you search in the questions for "diffraction", or ask a separate question for diffraction.) Crystals are good for this, because of their regular structure.
How many classes of diffraction?
fresnel diffraction and fraunhoffer diffractions
Can you see diffraction in water?
Diffraction can be observed in any medium.
