Answer:
When the scattering particles are much smaller than the wavelength of light, the scattering is known as Rayleigh scattering. In this case the scattering cross-section is proportional to 1λ4. It follows that in this regime light with a shorter wavelength is more greatly scattered than light with a longer wavelength.
