Answer : 1. "2 minutes"
Explanation :

As a result, the Sun appears to be raised above the horizon and we are able to see the Sun 2 minutes before the actual sunrise. Same phenomenon occurs during sunset, i.e., we can see the Sun 2 minutes after the actual sunset. Thus, the time difference between actual sunset and the apparent sunset is about 2 minutes.
