The sequence of colors in a rainbow, which is often referred to in the context of light and its spectral qualities, follows the acronym ROYGBIV. The colors, in order from the outer edge of the arc to the inner edge, are:
1. Red
2. Orange
3. Yellow
4. Green
5. Blue
6. Indigo
7. Violet
This sequence represents the visible spectrum of light that is refracted, reflected, and dispersed by water droplets in the atmosphere, resulting in the formation of a rainbow.
