Which of the following hydrated compound do not show hydrolysis on heating.

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
B, C
Solution:

On heating, some hydrated salts lose only their water of crystallization without undergoing hydrolysis.

CoCl₂·6H₂O and CuSO₄·5H₂O simply become anhydrous salts on heating.

Hydrated chlorides like MgCl₂·6H₂O and FeCl₃·6H₂O undergo hydrolysis, producing HCl along with the oxide or oxychloride.

Therefore, the compounds that do not show hydrolysis on heating are CoCl₂·6H₂O and CuSO₄·5H₂O.
