Description
Density: 4.39g/cm3
Solubility in water: 0.0093 g/100 mL
Nickel(II) carbonate describes one or a mixture of inorganic compounds containing nickel and carbonate. From the industrial perspective, the most important nickel carbonate is basic nickel carbonate with the formula Ni4CO3(OH)6(H2O)4. Simpler carbonates, ones more likely encountered in the laboratory, are NiCO3 and its hexahydrate. All are paramagnetic green solid consisting of Ni2+ cations. The basic carbonate is an intermediate in the hydrometallurgical purification of nickel from its ores and is used in electroplating of Ni. Nickel carbonates are used in some ceramic applications and as precursors to catalysts.
USES
The nickel catalyst, the colorant of the glazes and porcelain, plated nickel.
