The color of sky is due to the property of dispersion of light
the white light of the colour before reaching the earths surface gets dispersed into its 7 components VIBGYOR
the molecules present in the atmosphere are capable of scattering only the light with shortest wavelength and hence red light wont get scattered
As the light that we get from sun is white in color and due to atmospheric refraction splitting up of white light takes place and the light with longest wavelength gets lost in the space and blue and violet has shortest wavelength but the intensity of blue will be much more than that of violet which makes us see the sky blue in colour

Colour of sky is blue due to the atmospheric refraction of light and the phenomenon of scattering of light. When the sun rays enters into earth atmosphere, most of the sunlight gets scattered due to small particles present in the air. And the scattering of blue light is maximum due to its minimum wavelength. And when this scattered blue light rays enters our eye, we see the colour of the sky blue.
