Which combination of certain pigments give the resultant colour as white?

Answer 1

There are to types of colors in physics: Pigments and light.
With pigments or paints the more colors you combine the closer you get to black. Black pigment is all color. White pigment is the absence of color. The primary pigment colors are Yellow, Magenta and Cyan with secondary colors of Blue, Red and Green.
It is just the opposite in light. The more colors of light you combine the closer you get to white. White light is all color. Black is the absence of color. The primary light colors are
Blue, Red and Green with secondary colors of Yellow (green/red), Magenta (red/blue) and Cyan(blue/green).

To answer your question, no pigments can be mixed to make white.

Answer 2

White and white. Pigments are different than light. If you were to add light, then possible answers would be cyan + red, magenta + green, and yellow + blue. Any combination of non-white pigments will result in a darker pigment.

Answer 3

Since you specify pigments, you are talking about SUBTRACTIVE COLOUR. That is the colour model that starts with a white substrate, such as paper or canvas, and mixes pigments onto it which subtract frequencies from white light, causing colours to appear. If you have, for example, yellow and magenta pigments mixed on a page the white light (which we sense as an even mix of red,green,and blue) will have the blue filtered out by the yellow ink and the green filtered out by the magenta ink -- resulting in red light being reflected.

The other way of mixing colours is called ADDITIVE COLOUR. This is colours created by mixing different colours of light together, adding them onto a black background. This is how computer monitors work, for example. To make red light, just turn on a red light. To make yellow, turn on red and green. To make white, turn on red, green and blue.

So, to answer your question: The only paint you can mix to get white paint, is white paint. But if you have a projection screen, you can make white by adding red + blue + green lights together onto one spot.

Answer 4

Not all color combination but the combination of red, green and blue at full alpha capacity.
the RGB code is a code used for colors R=red
G=green
B=blue
Every color could have a value between 0 and 255 in base 16;
that means RGB=#000000 (no color) = black
RGB=#ffffff(all colors)=white

Answer 5

Julie is right about everything except what are primary colors.
RED, BLUE AND YELLOW. red+blue=purple, blue+yellow=green, yellow+red=orange. White is absence of pigment, or presence of all colors of light. Black is presence of all pigment, or absence of all light.

Answer 6

White technically is the combination of ALL colors. so if you combined the primary colors you would have white. This is why a light spectru breaks down into all the colors and is useful in science

Answer 7

If you are talking about what the human eye sees as white, it's the combination of red, green, and blue in equal proportions.

Answer 8

Titanium dioxide which is the oxidation of titanium produces the pigment that produces white paints.

Answer 9

I think white is a primary color just like yellow, red and blue are and thus you cannot get white as a resultant color.

good luck.

Answer 10

its the absence of pigmentation that makes white
