Statement I is correct

As evident from the structure, \mathrm{CuSO_4\cdot5H_2O} contains \mathrm{Cu-O} bonds. 

Statement II is incorrect

 In \mathrm{\mathrm{CuSO}_{4} \cdot \mathrm{5H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}, ligand coordinating with \mathrm{Cu(II)} ion is \mathrm{'O'} based ligand and not \mathrm{'S'} based ligand.

Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.

Hence the correct answer is an option (3).
