Comment: The definition of Dispersion was more complicated in the and difficult to understand for Physics newbies. I added the video about Chromatic Dispersion that helps a lot in understanding the subject matter because it has presented the subject matter with analogies. More parapharasing is required in some of the topics like refractive index. So, I have shorten the definition of Refractive Index in a single line.

...

A single ray of light consist of seven different color with varying wavelength. When a ray of light travels from one transparent medium to another(e.g from air to glass) then it splits into its constituent color (Red,Orange,Yellow,Green,Blue,Indigo,Violet). This phenomenon by which a ray of light  slits into its constituent color when it is passed through a transparent medium is called dispersion. Refraction is the cause and dispersion is the result.
