Where do Malcolm Macduff Ross Donalbain go at the end of act 2 and why?

Malcolm goes to England and Donalbain goes to Ireland (and that's the last we hear of him). They are taking a powder, believing rightly that they will be suspected of murdering their father. Ross, who loves to find out and deliver news, is going to Scone to check out Macbeth's coronation. Macduff, who doesn't like Macbeth much and is anyway somewhat antisocial, goes home to Fife. There he will make a point of refusing invitations to Macbeth's dinner parties.
