प्रश्न

Copper sulphate crystals are always wet due to the presence of water of crystallisation in them.

False
Water of crystallisation is an integral part of the crystal structure of salts. It is not free or additional water outside the crystal; thus, salts do not appear wet. They seem to be completely dry.
