Scattering refers to reflection of light bouncing (particularly of whit light )doesn't split the constituent colours of the electro magnetic wave . on the other hand dispersion courses the light to split in to its constituents colours .pass a beam of white light through a prism and you will see VIBGYGOR , that,s dispersion.

Both dispersion and scattering are the different properties exhibited by light depending on the conditions. Dispersion is the phenomenon in which the phase velocity of a wave depends on its frequency. The component lights of different wavelengths travel with different speeds in same media. So the component lights of a single light like VIBGYOR of White light disperses if the single light of combination of other lights travel from one medium to the other. Scattering of Light Scattering of light is the deviation of light rays from its straight path. As light propagates through the atmosphere, it travels in a straight path until it is obstructed by bits of dust or gas molecules.Scattering of Light Scattering of light is the deviation of light rays from its straight path. As light propagates through the atmosphere, it travels in a straight path until it is obstructed by bits of dust or gas molecules.
