green viterol Fe so4.7h20 looses it's water of crystalization on heating and gives out the smell of burning sulphur
equation-:
feso4(s) on heating gives fe2o3(s) + so2(g) + so3(g)
equation-:
feso4(s) on heating gives fe2o3(s) + so2(g) + so3(g)

the salt is FeSO4 ( Ferrous sulphate )
the reaction takes place in two steps :
first step:
FeSO4.7H2 -----heat----> FeSO4 + 7H2O
second step:
FeSO4 ----heat---> Fe2O3 + SO2 + SO3
(Ferric Oxide) (Sulphur Dioxide) (Sulphur Trioxide)
