Dispersion is the process by which white light disperses into various different colors based on their wavelengths when passing through a prism.
The human eye perceives different wavelengths in visible light as different colors. The visible light spectrum is divided into seven bands each with a different wavelength range known as VIBGYOR.
Hence, the subjective property of light related to its wavelength is colour.
