Why does the sun appear red in the evening?
The sun appears red or orange at sunrise and sunset because of the dust particles in the air and the angle which the sun is striking Earth at the given time. This causes the reds and oranges (who are of longer wavelength) spread out and "appear" red.

How long will the sunrise and sunset take if the sun were a red giant?
Sunrise and sunset may take longer if the sun were a red giant due to its larger size. The sun's expansion into a red giant would cause Earth to be engulfed, so the concept of sunrise and sunset would be moot.
