Answer:
hello mate
Explanation:
Diffraction is a phenomenon observed only in waves, but scattering is a phenomenon observed in both waves and particles. Diffraction is a property of propagation of waves, whereas scattering is a property of wave interactions
hope this will help you
Diffraction Of Light
=> when light waves fall on a small size opstacle a smaller aperture which dimension is comparable to the wavelength of light then there is departure from rectilinear propagation and light energy followers out into reason of giometrical shadow. The spreading of light energy beyond the limit prescribed by rectilinear propagation of light is called diffraction of light. In other words diffraction is a process by which of beam of light other system of wave is spread out as a result of passing through a narrow opening or across and edge.

Scattering Of Light
=> when light waves fall on a small bodies such as particles, water particles in suspension, suspended particle in colloidal solution, they are thrown out in all direction this phenomena is called scattering of light.
scattering of light is maximum in case of violet colour and minimum in case of red colour of light. Blue colour of sky is due to scattering of light. The brilliant red colour of rising and setting sun is due to scattering of light.
