 A rainbow is an optical and meteorological phenomenon occurring in the form of a characteristic multicolored arc resulting from the splitting of visible light. Light splitting in this case is a result of the phenomenon of dispersion (as in a prism), resulting from differences in the angle of refraction of light of different wavelengths when passing from air to water and from water to air. Diffraction, on the other hand, is the splitting of light as it passes through a slit, and does not occur here.
