does the whole milk stop moving at equilibrium when drop into water ? need explaination please :)
Osmosis : diffusion of water ( H20) through the cell membrane either in to or out of the cell •Osmosis is the diffusion of water (H2O) through selectively permeable membrane Selectively permeable : some substance can pass across them and others cannot Osmosis occurs only in living things

how about the movement of milk or milo powder in a drop of water ? :) either move or stop moving ?
You'll perhaps never find a equilibrium that isn't dynamic, so if we assume the equilibrium is dynamic and use Fick’s law of diffusion we get to conclude the following: The milk will try to diffuse with the concentration gradient, that meaning that the molecules will move apart until equilibrium. When it gets to equilibrium it still move, but the net contributions to the concentration gradient proximally equal 0. So the milk molecules with never stop moving also what we expect from liquids.
nice.thanks :)
No problem at all :)
