Statement 1: CuSO4.5H2O on heating to 250oC loses all the five H2O molecules and becomes anhydrous.Statement 2: All five H2O molecules are coordinated to the central Cu2+ ion.

Statement 1: True, CuSO4.5H2O→250oCCuSO4white+5H2O. Anhydrous copper sulphate becomes whitebecause there is no d-d transition of electron in absence of ligands according to crystal field theory.Statement 2: False, Four water molecules are coordinated to Cu2+ and fifth one is hydrogen bonded to two water molecules and anion, SO42−.
