Nickel sulfate (NiSO4)

Description:

Nickel sulfate (NiSO4) is an inorganic compound characterized by its green crystalline appearance, typically found as a hexahydrate (NiSO4·6H2O). It is soluble in water, forming a pale green solution, and is commonly used in electroplating, as a catalyst, and in the production of nickel salts. Nickel sulfate is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air, which can affect its stability and handling. The compound is known for its toxicological properties; it can be harmful if ingested or inhaled and may cause skin irritation. Nickel sulfate is classified as a potential carcinogen, necessitating careful handling and appropriate safety measures in industrial and laboratory settings. In terms of chemical behavior, it can participate in various reactions, including precipitation and complexation, making it useful in analytical chemistry. Overall, nickel sulfate is an important compound in various industrial applications, but its toxicity requires awareness and caution during use.

Nickel sulfate

CAS: 7786-81-4

Nickel sulfate is an inorganic compound that has been shown to have a carcinogenic potential. It is also a strong reducing agent and can be used to reduce metal hydroxides. Nickel sulfate has been shown to inhibit the activity of enzymes, such as catalase, in human serum at high concentrations. This compound is not soluble in water but dissolves in acidic solutions or reacts with sodium citrate, forming nickel citrate. Nickel sulfate is structurally similar to the group p2 metals (i.e., copper, zinc) and can be used for structural analysis of these metals. Nickel sulfate is soluble in water vapor and hydrogen bonding interactions occur between nickel sulfate and other compounds containing sulfur atoms (e.g., hydrogen sulfide).
