Answer:

Blue

Step-by-step explanation:

The colors of the rainbow are known by the acronym; ROYGBIV.

This is;

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet.

From research, their respective wavelengths on the average are;

Red: 665 nm

Orange; 630 nm

Yellow; 600 nm

Green; 550 nm

Blue; 470 nm

Indigo; from 445nm to 464 nm

Violet; less than 400 nm

This means that from Red to Violet in that order, wavelength is decreasing in a descending order.

Now in refraction, the light with shortest wavelength will be bent the most while that with longest wavelength will be bent the least.

Thus, violet bends the most.

However, violet is not included in the options. So the next one that will bend the most after violet among the options given is Blue.
