White light is made up of different wavelengths which we see as colour. The shorter the wavelengths the higher the frequency, and the slower it travels through certain medium. The different wavelengths travel at the same velocity through air -making light white- but when they reach a different medium the velocity of each medium differs ad this causes them to separate into different colours.
When Sunlight passes through a prism, the rays are bent. because each wavelength bends a diffrent amount, the light is separated into its component colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo (a deep blue), and violet.
Light is scattered as it passes through a prism.

Red is refracted most and violet is refracted the least when white light passes through a prism.
Light bending as it passes through a prism is an example of refraction, not reflection.

A rainbow
When light passes through a prism, it is refracted slightly and separated into seven individual beams of coloured light - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
They separate light into the light spectrum. If a beam of light shines through a prism, a rainbow of color will show out through the opposite side.
