A metal sulphate which contains water e.g. MGSO4.7H2O
Heating the saturated solution of Copper sulfate will not form the hydrated copper sulfate crystals because only after cooling down the saturated solution of copper sulfate then only the crystals of the hydrated copper sulfate can be formed
Copper sulfate is not a metal There are two compounds called Copper Sulfate, which are salts of the metal Copper. CuSO4 is Copper (II) Sulfate, once known as Cupric Sulfate. Cu2SO4 is Copper (I) Sulfate, once known as Cuprous Sulfate.
The mass of water does not increase when copper sulfate is added to the water, unless the copper sulfate is hydrated. The mass of the mixture of water and copper sulfate, of course, does increase.
Sulfate is a negative ion with the formula SO42- in order to balance the charge there needs to be a positive ion, which usually is a metal ion, but not always. However, the sulfate ion itself is not a metal nor does it contain a metal.
Yes, copper (II) sulfate, also known as cupric sulfate, is a deep blue when it is hydrated (when it has water). If you heat it, the water evaporates and leaves plain copper (II) sulfate power, which is a cream color. So yes, dehydrating copper (II) sulfate in its hydrated form will cause it to change from blue to white. If you take this dehydrated (anhydrous) copper (II) sulfate and add water to it, it will become hydrated again, so the white powder will, once again, turn that deep blue color.

10h2o.Cuso4
Hydrated sodium, sulfate, silver, and nitrate ions. (The ions already exist in the sodium sulfate and silver nitrate solids, but may not be hydrated there.) since silver sulfate is not very soluble in water, most of the silver and sulfate ions will be removed from the water as solid precipitate, but some hydrated ions will remain in solution.
The formula of the hyrdrated from should be MgSO4 . 3H2O.
The blue hydrated CuSO4 turns pale white, when dehydrated.
The primary hydrate of copper sulfate is the pentahydrate of copper (II) sulfate, with formula CuSO4.5 H2O.
Copper sulfate is not black. Combined with water, as hydrated copper sulfate, it is blue. Without water, as anhydrous copper sulfate, it is white.

You might be thinking of hydrated salts. Examples include hydrated Copper Sulfate (CuSO4 . 5H2O)
