Is milk soluble in water

Answer 1

Milk is mostly water, which is very polar. Sugar (sucrose) is also a rather polar molecule. So, polar compounds dissolve readily in polar solvents. That is why sugar easily dissolves in milk.

Answer 2

Well, honey, milk is mostly water anyway, so yes, it is soluble in water. Milk is a colloidal suspension of fat and proteins in water, so it mixes quite nicely with its watery friend. But don't go thinking you can make a milkshake just by adding water - that's a whole different story!

Answer 3

If you asked, if milk sinks in water; it does not. The density of milk is a little bit higher than the density of water, but the difference is too small to be noticed, so a mixture of water and milk is formed.

Answer 4

Milk is not a true solution but an emulsion. Milk powder is obtained by the dehydration of liquid milk; mixing milk powder with water is the inverse procedure, a re-hydration process.

Answer 5

Milk powder is obtained after removing water and undergoing various processes. So it is understandable why it dissolves in water.

Answer 6

milo = sorghum = Sorghum bicolor is not soluble in water.

Answer 7

Yes, milk is soluble in water. Milk is a colloid solution, where the protein and fat particles in milk are dispersed and remain suspended in the water.

Answer 8

Yes.
