What tools can be used to break up white light?
Breaking of white lights means dispersion of light in which the white light or the visible light splits into 7 colors. Many tools may be used to break up the white light but among them one of them is Prism. It can break up the white lights into 7 colors. Keep a white paper in front of the prism and the prism in the sun due to which the sunlight coming from the sun passes through the prism and the white breaks up into 7 colors due to change in velocity of the different invisible lights inside the white or the visible light. Other tools like plastic scale or ruler also can be used to break up the white light. Thank you

Perhaps you can try descaling your kettle. You can either purchase a descaler or put 1/3 white vinegar + 2/3 water in the kettle and boil that. Leave the solution in the kettle overnight after boiling. The next day, dump out the vinegar solution and boil with just water. Leave that overnight and rinse out the kettle and you can use the kettle for making hot beverages now.

This sounds like the kettle has mineral deposits in it, which are not harmful. They occur naturally from water, but can be safely removed. There are many products on the market for this, just read the label to be sure it is safe for the enamel finish. But in the meantime it is certainly safe to use the kettle.
