Best Answer

Yes, the blue-green heptahydrate, FeSO4.7H2O, is the most common form of this material.

Others are:

  • FeSO4·4H2O (mineral: rozenite, white, relatively common, may be dehydratation product of melanterite)
  • FeSO4·H2O (mineral: szomolnokite, relatively rare)
  • FeSO4·5H2O (mineral: siderotil, relatively rare)
  • FeSO4·6H2O (mineral: ferrohexahydrite, relatively rare)
