Key facts
Irreversible changes-A change is called irreversible if it cannot be changed back again.
In an irreversible change, new materials are always formed. Sometimes these new materials are useful to us.
Heating-Heating can cause an irreversible change. For example you heat a raw egg to cook it. The cooked egg cannot be changed back to a raw egg again.
Mixing-Mixing substances can cause an irreversible change. For example, when vinegar and bicarbonate of soda are mixed, the mixture changes and lots of bubbles of carbon dioxide are made. These bubbles and the liquid mixture left behind, cannot be turned back into vinegar and bicarbonate of soda again.
Investigation: Making Plastic with Milk and Vinegar
Warm about half a pint of milk and add about 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to it. The milk immediately curdles. Strain and keep the solid curds and put the plastic on kitchen paper to dry it. You can then handle it, put it in a mould or shape it yourself. This will dry firm overnight if kept in a warm place, become very hard in time and can be painted and varnished. Milk can be kept warm in a thermos flask.
