Question

A potato remains a potato even after boiling. So, is the change reversible or irreversible? Give reason to support your answer.

Answer 1

A raw potato becomes a cooked potato so the change is irreversible.

Explanation:

• The process of cooking involves chemical changes.
• Before cooking a raw vegetable has its own taste and structure.
• But after cooking under high temperature and pressure, not only texture and composition but the taste also changes.
• Therefore a cooked potato is a new chemical substance with a different taste.
• Thus the reaction is irreversible as cooked potato cannot be converted to raw potato.
