Answer:

clouds are white because light from the sun is white.as light passes through a cloud it intract with the water droplets which are much bigger then the atmospheric particles that exist in the sky.

When sunlight reaches an atmospheric particle in the sky, blue light is scattered away more strongly than other colours, giving the impression that the sky is blue.

But in a cloud, sunlight is scattered by much larger water droplets. These scatter all colours almost equally meaning that the sunlight continues to remain white and so making the clouds appear white against the background of the blue sky.

Answer:

When warm air rises from the ground, it carries water vapor with it. When the water vapor meets the cold air found high in the sky, the gas condenses to liquid and forms cumulus clouds. While these fluffy-white clouds look like soft pillows of cotton, they are actually composed of small water droplets.

When the sun shines, its electromagnetic spectrum emits a wide range of energy, including the visible spectrum of red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet light. The combination of these colors creates white light.

As the sun’s light hits the clouds’ small water droplets, the entire visible spectrum scatters making clouds appear white.
