Morphology

immutableness = immutable (transparent) = im + mut + able + ness

Formed by adding the noun-forming suffix '-ness' to the adjective 'immutable' (im- + mutable), producing the expected meaning 'the quality of being unchanging'.

Etymology

Immutableness comes from the parts im- meaning 'not' and mut- meaning 'change', as in mutate. So immutableness means 'not changing', which is why it describes something that cannot be altered.
