Detailed Solution

        Ferrous sulphate crystals have water molecules (FeSO4.7H2O). By heating, ferrous sulphate crystals lose water and anhydrous ferrous sulphate (FeSO4) is formed. So their colour changes from light green to white.
        This Reaction is Decomposition Reaction because in this the water molecules get decomposed or break from the crystal molecule.
