Answer:

In chemistry, water of crystallization or water of hydration are water molecules that are present inside crystals. ... Classically, "water of crystallization" refers to water that is found in the crystalline framework of a metal complex or a salt, which is not directly bonded to the metal cation.

Answer:

Water of crystallization is the fixed number of water molecules present in one formula unit of salt.

These compounds are called hydrates. Copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate is an example of such a hydrate. Its formula is CuSO4 5H2O. The five in front of the formula for water tells us there are 5 water molecules per formula unit of CuSO4 (or 5 moles of water per mole of CuSO4).

Water of crystallization is the fixed number of water molecules present in one formula unit of salt.

(i) Five molecules of water.

(ii) Formula -CuSO4.5H2

(iii) When heated, its colour changes from blue to white.
