Explanation:
Color is specific energies of light waves which create a visible spectrum that ranges between red and violet. We see objects as a specific color because of the color effect. For example when a blue object is hit with light rays the object reflects only blue light and absorbs all other light.
Black and white are not colors because they do not have specific wavelengths. White light contains all wavelengths of visible light while black is the absence of visible light. White is what we see when all wavelengths of light are reflected off an object. Colors like white and black are not present in the spectrum because they are the result of our eyes' mixing wavelengths of light. Therefore any color mixed with white (like pink or peach) or mixed with black (like maroon) are not true colors.
