CHEMICAL STRUCTURE AND DESCRIPTION:
Nickel is a transition metal located in group 10 of the periodic table. It has a face-centered cubic (FCC) crystal structure. It is a silvery-gray, lustrous, ductile, and malleable metal. It exhibits high electrical and thermal conductivity. Nickel is resistant to corrosion and shows superior resistance particularly to alkalis. It is ferromagnetic up to its Curie temperature of 358 °C. It is widely used as an anode in electrolytic plating processes, for enhancing corrosion resistance of metal surfaces, in stainless steel and alloy production, and in electronics and battery industries.
