Dispersion of light is the splitting of white light into its constituent colors due to the refractive index of the surface and the wavelength of the light. If the light entering the prism is not of a single colour then the emergent beam also has different colours arranged in a definite order.

Answer:

Upon passage through the prism, the white light is separated into its component colors - red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. The separation of visible light into its different colors is known as dispersion.
