The irreversible process is also called the natural process because all the processes occurring in nature are irreversible processes. The natural process occurs due to the finite gradient between the two states of the system. For instance, heat flow between two bodies occurs due to the temperature gradient between the two bodies; this is in fact the natural flow of heat. Similarly, water flows from high level to low level, current moves from high potential to low potential, etc.

1) In the irreversible process the initial state of the system and surroundings cannot be restored from the final state.
2) During the irreversible process the various states of the system on the path of change from initial state to final state are not in equilibrium with each other.
3) During the irreversible process the entropy of the system increases decisively and it cannot be reduced back to its initial value.
4) The phenomenon of a system undergoing irreversible process is called as irreversibility.
