The polar opposite of the color gray is gray itself. Normal colors (of the spectrum: R.O.Y.G.B.I.V.) are part of the spectrum or color wheel. Therefore, they each have completely different opposite colors (the other side of the color wheel). However, the color gray is not one of the spectrum of colors. In fact, the color gray is hardly even a color at all. Gray is exactly between white and black. White is the pigmentary absence of color, while black consists of all of the elemental pigmentary colors (red, blue, and yellow). Again, black and white are not part of the color spectrum, and gray is in the middle of the two. Perfect gray has no opposite because there are only two colors on its special spectrum. For this reason, had there been some kind of color wheel based off of black and white alone, perfect black would be on, say, the top, and then perfect white would have to be on the bottom, on the center of each side (left and right), the two colors would meet at exactly the same spot, creating exactly the same color. Thus, gray has no opposite.

There is no polar opposite. Grey/gray is a mixture of black and white.

What is the Difference between opposite and polar opposite?

Opposite by definition; " Having a position on the other or further side of something." Polar opposite, is essentially the opposite of something that is of the further* side. Ergo, all polar opposites are opposites, but not all opposites are polar. For example: Word: Famous (Known about by many people) A polar opposite: Infamous (Well known for some bad quality or deed) Ordinary opposite Unknown (Not known or familiar) In summary, a polar opposite, is an opposite of the word within the same 'field' if you will.
