A bag of cement lying in the open gets wet due to rain during the night. The next day the sun shines brightly. Do you think the changes which have occurred in the cement, could be reversed.

Some changes are listed in the following table. For each change, write in the blank column whether the change can be reversed or not.

A drawing sheet changes when you draw a picture on it. Can you reverse this change?
