The blue colour of sky is due to scattering of sunlight by the molecules of the atmosphere. According to Rayleigh's law of scattering ,the intensity of scattered light ,I ∝ 1/λ^4 , blue colour having the shortest wavelength in the visible spectrum scatter the most . When we look at the sky, the scattered light enters our eyes and this light contains blue colour in a large proportion , so the sky appears blue.
