Now I know you can get a almost every color LED (Light Emitting Diode). For this purpose lets say you can't. Lets say for this purpose only Red (R), Yellow (Y) and Blue (B) LEDs exist

If you mix the Light from 2 different LEDs with nothing but the air around the LEDs, will you get the proper color? Like if you mix (See Below) will you get the corresponding colors on top of the 3 colors you already have R, Y and B.

Y+B= Green (G)
R+B= Purple (P)
Y+R= Orange (O)
R+Y+B= ???? What would you get.

Then if not in the Air will it work down a 1 inch acrylic tube?

I need to know this for a project I am working on.
