Solution

The correct option is (B) Blue

  1. The blue color has the smallest wavelength and due to the smallest wavelength, it scatters more than the longer wavelengths colors (yellow and especially red light).
  2. As the blue light scatters more than any other color the sky looks blue.
  3. Scattering of the light is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the light as the wavelength is smaller the scarring is more.
