in some cases Aditya but for the most part it is white or transparent as there is no 256 in the rgb color scheme...

First of all its Red Green Blue (RGB) and second thing it has 256 shades for each color from 0-255 so it will make no change after 255. Thanks

it also pays to know why there are only 256 shades. it is based on the binary system a bit can either be 0 or 1 there are 8 bits in a byte 8^2=256
