The color of b-carotene

The color of b-carotene is because of its chromophore of extensively conjugated double bonds. Catalytic hydrogenation would result in addition of hydrogen to these double bonds; as, catalytic hydrogenation of a b-carotene sample would convert it from a red-orange conjugated alkene into a colorless alkane.
