irrevocableness

Cannot be undone

The quality of being impossible to undo, reverse, or change.

Irrevocableness emphasizes permanence and finality: the irrevocableness of death, the irrevocableness of his decision to resign.

The word is formal and somewhat cumbersome; irrevocability is more common in the same contexts.
