Hey friend here is your answer
Ferrous sulphate FeSO4 when heated strongly , the following changes take place
1. The green colour of ferrous sulphate ( due to water of crystallization ) fades and it turns into reddish brown due to the formation of feeric oxide ( Fe2O3)
2. The smell of burning sulphur can be felt .
The following equation demonstrates this reaction ,
FeSO4----------------Fe2O3+SO2 +SO3
It is a thermal decomposition reaction as ferrous sulphate in the presence of heat decomposes to form reactant
Hope it helps you

Answer:
Decomposition reaction.
2FeSO4(s) +Heat → Fe2O3(s) + SO2(g) + SO3(g)
