Because the water is not absorbed in these salts; this water is contained in the crystalline structure.
Only some salts have hydrates, not all. These salts contain in the formula water of crystallization.
A hydrated salt has a number of waters of hydration combined to each molecule of salt whereas an anhydrous salt is one that has had its waters of hydration removed. An example of a hydrated salt is nickel sulfate hexahydrate, NiSO4·6H2O. The waters of hydration can be removed by a simple heating, resulting in NiSO4(s) + 6H2O(g).
Heating up and weighing a crucible and lid to determine the amount of hydrated salts is not ideal because it does not accurately account for the loss of water due to moisture and potential decomposition of the salt during heating. Additionally, this method may lead to the formation of anhydrous salts, which can affect the weight measurement and lead to inaccurate calculations of hydration. A more precise approach would involve using a controlled method that ensures complete removal of water without altering the chemical composition of the salts.
Endothermic salts are typically double salts that contain water molecules within their crystal structure. These salts require energy input to break the bonds holding the water molecules, resulting in an endothermic reaction. An example of this is hydrated copper(II) sulfate, which turns from blue to white when heated due to the loss of water molecules.
Efflorescence and deposition of salts both involve the movement of dissolved salts to the surface of a material where they form solid crystals. Efflorescence occurs when the salts are brought to the surface through evaporation of water, while deposition of salts happens when the salts are pushed to the surface through capillary action or other mechanisms. Both processes can be unsightly and can cause damage to the material over time.

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is not a hydrated salt.

You might be thinking of hydrated salts. Examples include hydrated Copper Sulfate (CuSO4 . 5H2O)
No, only some salts change the color after dehydration.
probably hydrated beryllium salts like BeCl2.H20
to keep the skin hydrated so it doesnt dry out. :) to keep the skin hydrated so it doesnt dry out. :)

When an anhydrous salt retain water in the crystalline structure.
Anhydrous salts prepared by evaporating the water contained in a hydrated salt. However, anhydrous salts are non-electrolytes, meaning they can't pass an electric current.
Yea, mine are like that and sometimes my friends comment on it. They look shiny, so from far away, you would think they are hydrated, but on a closer look, you can see the top layer of skin is a little dry.
