Why are sunsets red after a volcanic eruption?
When light from the sun passes through a greater thickness of the atmosphere more light from short wavelengths of visible light (blue and violet) is removed by scattering before it reaches your eyes leaving behind long wavelengths of visible light (red and orange) that also reflect off of clouds making them red too, that's what makes sunsets and sunrises red too because when the sun is setting or rising it's light has to pass through more gases in the atmosphere instead of in the afternoon when its high in the sky (blue sky). When volcanic ash is the air it thickens the atmosphere and can be reflected off of the particles.
What color would sunsets be if molecules in the sky where orange instead of blue?
A deeper red on the low end of the color spectrum.
How did Mount Krakatoa affect the atmosphere?
The volcanic dust thrown into the atmosphere affected the weather around the world, and people as far away as Britain and the United States saw bizarre red sunsets caused by particles in the atmosphere.
What would cause a rock that contains iron to turn reddish brown?
Rust, the brownish red powder on iron, is formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the presence of water or air moisture. The reactants are oxygen and iron the products are oxidation, carbon dioxide and water

Which element is a solid and forms rust when reacted with air?
The element is iron.Rust is a general term for a series of iron oxides, usually red oxides, formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the presence of water or air moisture.
In the evening clour of the cloud is seem to be red sometime. why?
Dust in the air makes the clouds look red - there are winds blowing at high altitudes that can carry dust for hundred, and even thousands, of miles. The sun shining though the dust laden air makes the clouds appear red, and can make for beautiful sunsets... Light white is made up of 7 visible colours which can be seen during a rainbow.As the sun sets,white light from the sun passes through the water vapour in the air and other particles,causing the white light to break up into different colours.Since red has the longest wavelength,it is the colour mostly seen during sunset.
Why are sunsets red?
Sunlight entering the atmosphere is "white" light, containing all the colors in the spectrum. Dust in the air tends to scatter the blue components of the sunlight making the sky appear blue.However, when we look towards the sun at sunset, we see red and orange colors because the blue light has been scattered out and away from the line of sight. The more dust there is in the air the more marked is this effect.
Is it true that there is a red moon?
There is truy no red moon. During a solar eclipse, it merely appears that the Earth's moon is red. The way the light crosses the atmosphere refracts this way. You get the same effect during sunsets and sunrises.
