Who discovered white light can split into the seven different rainbow colours?
A person
What block of glass can split white light into different colours?
A prism is what you are referring to.
Does the prism change the color of the light?
A prism will split white light into its constituent colours (the colours of the rainbow). "White light" is the light we see around us i.e. natural light from the sun. This light is made up of all the colours in the visible spectrum
What piece of equipment do we use to split light?
A clear glass prism will split a white light beam into rainbow colours.
Can you separate white light?
Yes, very easily. A ray of white light can be split be shining it through a prism (triangular glass block) or a raindrop: both create a spectrum, or rainbow, of split up colours. This works because white light is made up from different colours of light that are all waves with different wavelengths/frequencies. This means that the colours are all refracted (bent) by different amounts when they go through the prism/drop, causing the ray of white light to split up into its components.
Is light white?
Light appears white, however it is made up of different colours, which when put together make white light. These colours can be seen if you direct light through a prism. At the right angle the light is split up into the colours (rainbow).

What is the name of the device used to split up white light into its various colours?
prism
Why do colors combined make white?
That is not true. If you are talking about all the colours of light in the spectrum coming from white light that is true. When white light passes through a glass prism, it causes the light to split into different colours because of the different angles at which they refract.
