Hey,
Thanks for asking this question.

This question has two parts,

1)Why salts are called hydrated :
Salts are called hydrated salts because there are one or more chemically combined water molecule.
This is known as water of crystallization. It indicates the number of water molecules which are chemically combined with the salt in its crystalline state.

2) Example of two hydrated white salt :
*Calcium Sulphate Hemihydrate (Plaster Of Paris) - (CaSO4)2.H2O
*Sodium Carbonate DecaHydrate (Washing Soda) - Na2CO3.10H2O

●Hope my answer helped.
