During sunrise and sunset , rhe rays have to travel a larger part of the atmosphere bcoz they are very close to the horizon. Therefore the light other than red is mostly scattered away..

Hope it helps.... ✌

The light from the Sun travels through Earth's atmosphere it undergoes scattering before it reaches us. ... Thus, there is more probability for shorter wavelength light to get more scattered than for the longer wavelength light. Hence, the Sun (and sunrise and sunset) appears reddish orange during sunset and sunrise.
