Yes! No! Let me explain... Color (I'm in the US!) is really the frequency of light waves. As the frequency increases, humans perceive different colors. The colors of the rainbow, red, orange, yello, green, blue, indigo, violet, are really just increasing frequency of light. So-called 'black light', more accurately called ultra-violet, or UV, is just a little higher in frequency than violet. The human eye is not able to see UV. So, if we define colors simply as light of increasing frequency, then yes, black light is a color. But, some will argue that a major characteristic of color is that it is something we 'see'. Since humans cannot perceive ultra-violet, we could argue it is not a color. Some animals and insects, however CAN see in the ultra-violet portion of the spectrum. UV would certainly be a color to them. So, unless we are extremely nit-picky, we would probably conclude UV is a colour.

Are all neon lights made up of neon gases why?
No. Only the lights that give off a reddish light contain actual neon. Different color lights contain different gasses such as helium or argon. This is because every substance has a unique emission spectrum which dictates what colors of light it will give off if its electrons are excited such as by an electrical current.

What causes noble gases to light up and give off their distinctive color?
Noble gases light up and give off their distinct colors when electricity is passed through them, causing their electrons to become excited. As the electrons return to their stable state, they release energy in the form of light. Each noble gas emits a unique color based on the specific energy levels of its electrons.

What gases make up neon colors?
Look to the far right of the periodic table. Those are inert gases. Neon among them. On my chart in the "Life Science Libary" "Matter" book they were in tubes and electrified. They all had unique colors. By mixing them you have a pallet of electric light.
