"White" is not a single wavelength of light. It is at least three wavelengths of light to which our eyes are attuned. Matter treats each wavelength differently, so it is possible / likely that a given transparent material will separate the individual colors differently with refraction.
Use a prism.
White light can be split up into lots of different coloured light waves using a prism. We call this range of colours the visible spectrum.

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).

The violet (higher frequency) light.
White light split into colored light is called dispersion. This occurs when white light is passed through a prism, which separates the different colors based on their wavelengths.
There is an infinite number of colours and shades in white light, so the colours are most commonly given as RED, ORANGE, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, INDIGO and VIOLET.
White light cannot be split by passing it through a prism in a prison. A prism can split white light into its component colors due to refraction, which separates the light based on its wavelengths. However, a prison is a correctional facility for people, not a scientific instrument for light manipulation.
when normal white light is passed through a prism, it is split up into all the rainbow colors.
i dont even think light can be split up i dont know
tiny droplets of water can split up light rays
