During the sunrise and sunset, the light rays have to travel the large part of atmosphere because they are very close to the Horizon. Therefor the light other than red is mostly scattered away.most of the red light, which is least scattered, enters our eye.Hence the sun and the sky appear red.

mark me as brainliest and support me to give more valuable answers

Explanation:

During sunrise and sunset, light have to travel longer distance to reach observer. Loss of energy due to scattering is more for high frequency wave. Longer wavelength wave has minimum loss due scattering, and can travel long distance. Red color has longer wavelength, its intensity reach to the observer is more compare to other colors. Hence the sun appears red during sunrise and sunset.
