Answer:

Violet is most likely to refract, while red is least likely to refract

Step-by-step explanation:

The wavelengths :)

Dispersion states that the shorter the wavelength of the light/color, the more it is refracted. Because of this, the red light is less likely to refract while violet light is most likely to refract
