It is the refraction of white light being shone through a glass prism, or a raindrop, that separates the white light into the colours of the rainbow.
It separates the light by their wavelengths to make a color spectrum, and gives one a rainbow.

The splitting of white light into seven different constituent colours is called dispersion
When white light passes through a prism it separates into its component wavelengths that we observe as colours.
