Well, the common hydrate is the pentahydrate...

Explanation:

i.e. #CuSO_4*5H_2O#, so called #"blue vitriol..."#

...this salt demonstrates the chemical change associated with hydration by the marked colour change it undergoes upon reaction....

#underbrace(CuSO_4*5H_2O)_"deep blue"+Delta# #rarr# #underbrace(CuSO_4)_"white salt"+5H_2Ouarr#
