⭕️Day time sky is blue because molecules in the air at scatter blue light
from the sun more than they scattered red light.
⭕️The sky appears blue, because of the scattering of the light.
⭕️When sunlight strikes molecules in our atmosphere, the light is "redirected" in many directions.
⭕️when we'll look towards the sun at sunset we see red and Orange colour because blue light has been started out and away from the line of sight.
⭕️Scattering is the phenomenon by which a beam of light is redirected in many different directions when it interacts with a particle of matter.
⭕️The blue light is scattered more than the red light causing the sky to be blue.
✔️✔️✔️Why blue scatters more than red in this case?
⭕️This depends upon the line of sight.
⭕️Molecules scatters blue light and this scattered light enters in the eye through the line of sight.
⭕️But around the sunset, we see red light because blue light has been scattered out away from the line of sight.
from the sun more than they scattered red light.

=> The sky is blue because molecules present in air scatters the blue light most from the sun than that of red light...
Due to this scattering of blue light by air molecules... a blue colour enters into our eyes and we saw the sky; blue in colour...
But during sunset we saw the sky in reddish colour because at that time blue light has been scattered out and red - orange colour reach to our eyes...
Hence, during sunset we saw the sky in reddish colour...
=====================================
=> Blue light scatters more than red because the wavelength of blue colour is less than that of red colour... Due to shorter wavelength it scatters easily...
As shown, in figure...
That's why blue light scatters more than that of red light..
