Which optical effect creates colours on soap films?

A)Thin-film interference
B)Chromatic aberration
C)Rayleigh scattering
D)Fraunhofer diffraction

💡 Explanation

Thin-film interference causes colour because light waves reflecting from the soap film's surfaces interfere, and constructively enhance certain wavelengths. Therefore, colours appear due to constructive interference rather than scattering or diffraction, altering the light's spectral composition.
