Nickel metal is added to a solution of copper(ii) nitrate. express your answer as a chemical equation. identify all of the phases in your answer. enter no reaction if no reaction occurs.

Respuesta :

Nickel is the 28th chemical in the periodic table and the chemical symbol of copper (II) nitrate is Cu(NO₃)₂. The chemical reaction that occurs between these compounds is a single-replacement reaction.

From the activity series of metals, nickel is able to replace copper in the compound and this is expressed in the balanced equation,

                      Ni(s) + Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) --> Cu(s) + Ni(NO₃)₂(aq)

The phases are also written in the equation. 

The chemical equation will be[tex]\rm \bold{Ni\;(s)+\;Cu(NO_3)_2\;(aq)\rightarrow\;Cu\;(s)+Ni(NO_3)_2\;(aq)}[/tex].

Nickel and Copper belong to group 4 of the periodic table. According to the trend, nickel has been more reactive than copper and has been able to displace copper in the compound.

The reaction between copper nitrate and nickel will be the displacement reaction.

The reaction will be:

[tex]\rm Ni\;+\;Cu(NO_3)_2\;\rightarrow\;Cu\;+Ni(NO_3)_2[/tex]

The reaction has nickel in the solid state, and copper nitrate in the aqueous state, the nickel nitrate solution will be formed with precipitated solid copper.

The reaction will be:

[tex]\rm \bold{Ni\;(s)+\;Cu(NO_3)_2\;(aq)\rightarrow\;Cu\;(s)+Ni(NO_3)_2\;(aq)}[/tex]
