उत्तर
Since ‘A’ is a blue coloured crystalline salt, it is CuSO4. 5H2O (Blue vitriol). On heating, it loses all five water molecules and becomes colourless anhydrous CuSO4.
\[\ce{\underset{\text{(A)}}{CuSO4.5H2O} ⇌[heating][cooling]\underset{\text{anhy. copper sulphate} Colourless (B)}{CuSO4 + 5H2O}}\]
When water is added ‘B’ gives back A.
