➡️ Carotene pigment is more stable in contrast to chlorophyll that's why leaves contain green or yellow, when kept in dark due to appearance of stable carotenoid pigments.

Answer:
Chlorophyll fails to absorb the energy in the absence of light; hence it loses stability to give the leaf yellow colouration. This proves that carotenoids which imparts yellow color is more stable.
