You must have seen chandeliers having glass prisms. The light froma tungsten bulb gets dispersed while passing through these prisms and we see coloured spectrum. If we use an LED light instead of a tungsten bulb, will we be able to see the same effect ?

If LED is not white then the LED will not produce dispersion of light. Assuming the LED bulb to be white, the LED bulb will produce dispersion of light but the dispersion pattern is not as effective as the one with an incandescent bulb i.e., tungsten wire bulb.
