Atomic Symbol Ni (+ Cool facts: Color, Uses and more...) 2022

Every Atom has a symbol to represent them. Some are easy to figure out... But what is the atom whose symbol is Ni?

The answer is Nickel (Ni). But there's a lot of secret / fun facts about Nickel that people don't know. Let me walk you through this atom...

Nickel Overview

Atomic Symbol

Ni (Nickel)

State at 20 °C

Solid

Uses

Used in electroplating and metal alloys because of its resistance to corrosion. Also in nickel-cadmium batteries; as a catalyst and for coins.

Sources

Chiefly found in pentlandite [(Ni,Fe)9S8] ore. The metal is produced by heating the ore in a blast furnace which replaces the sulfur with oxygen. The oxides are then treated with an acid that reacts with the iron not the nickel.

Description

Hard, malleable, silvery-white metal. Found in the earth's crust in portions averaging 70 ppm. It can be polished to a lustrous finish. Virtually no corrosion under normal conditions.

Name Origin

German: kupfernickel (false copper).

Atomic Number

28
