Since water vapor is released and the solid changes color, this should be considered as a chemical reaction, not a physical change. By heating copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate until it was white and contained no more water, you undergo a chemical change. The chemical makeup of CuSO4. 5H2O changed to CuSO4

koushikgautham: but y is it a physical change too tho?
Ayushrout: i dont understand what you want yo tell
