Explanation:

It just said many of the substances that are hygroscopic are also useful as drying agents. Calcium chloride is deliquescent (hygriscopic to the point that it forms a liquid) and calcium sulfate hemihydrate is hygroscopic (stays solid but still absorbs water) and both can be used as drying agents for most solvents.

Because they absorb water and keep things dry. for eg. Clay and wool.
