"White" light is the integration of all wavelengths of light, such as black body radiation. It's called white because it has all the colors in the optical spectrum, but black bodies also radiate in the unltra violet & infrared wavelengths too.
White light is really a white.White means no color.If your eyes are perceiving light which has got no color means eyes are perceiving white light. Black color splits into Cyan , Magenta and Yellow color and with the help of these three colors you get all the colors.Try to mix all these three colors in different proportions and combination and check it your own.Different concentration of color will give different shades.
For example .....When Magenta is mixed with Cyan it gives Blue color and when mixed with Yellow it gives Red.When Cyan is mixed with Yellow it gives Green and you get Orange when you mix Red with Yellow.... so on so forth.
You just observe a Black line through a prism you will find that the Black line has split into Cyan , Magenta and Yellow.These three colors are the primary colors and these three colors are now not splitting when seen through prism.If you see the white light surrounded by any of these three primary colors... you will find that this white light is also not splitting when seen through prism.So I consider the White also a primary one.This white light may be bright or it may be dull.

Difference between white and black color?
AnswerBlack and white are not really colors, in the sense of having a specific hue. Black is the absense of all light, while white is the presence of every color of light. A white lightbulb is really emitting tons of red, yellow, green, blue, and purple light all at the same time.

Why you see different colors in white light?
This really seems strange, doesn't it? Remember that mixing light of various colors is different from mixing pigments of various colors. It's easy to see that if we had a very bright white paint, then mixing paints of various colors into it will only result in something other than white. Also, there is nothing you can do to the white paint to extract out of it paint of any spectrum color. With light it is different. Think of white light as if it were sound static, or 'white noise'. White light comes from the complex waves caused by the mix of all the light frequencies in the visible range of electromagnetic radiation. That's why you see a rainbow effect when you pass white light through a prism. The prism causes a 'spreading out' of the light of varying frequency that is inherent in the white light.
