hey friend
◆ the color of sun at sunrise and sunset is reddish orange.
◆ this is because during sunset and sunrise the rays of sun have to travel a long distance and red is the only color which gets mostly scattered as it has longest wavelength.
hope it helps you :)

During sunrise and sunset, the rays have to travel a larger part of the atmosphere because they are very close to the horizon. Therefore, light other than red is mostly scattered away. Most of the red light, which is the least scattered, enters our eyes. Hence, the sun and the sky appear red.
