Otherwise the compound will scorch!
Anhydrous is the term for a hydrate with water heated off. when a hydrated salt is heated, it loses water of crystallization leaving an anhydrous salt.
hydrate
By heating this compound is thermally dissociated: iron oxide and sulfur dioxide are obtained.
Normally heating a hydrate drives of water (as vapor) thus the mass of the substance being heated will be less at the end of the heating.
This is probably reffering to Louis Pasteur, but he just heated - I don't know that this had anything to do with heating slowly.
The compound remain a hydrate.
No, it does not violate the law of conservation of mass. The reason for this is that the decrease in mass of the compound can be found in the mass of the water that was lost upon heating. Thus, total mass remains constant.
When a hydrate is heated, the water, h20 is evaporated, leaving only the anhydrous salt. If you add water to a anhydrous salt, it will transition back into a hydrate.
Adiabatic heating

Pouring water on it because when it is heated it turns to an endothermic reaction and the hydrated part is boiled put of the compound it is then Anhydrous copper sulphate. When you add water it is hydrated again and this is an exothermic reaction. Which can get extremely hot so don't pour it on your hand and then hydrate it.

Heating sulfur with iron fillings lead to the formation of iron sulfide - a chemical compound.
