DEFINITION

Nickel- the twenty-eighth element of the Periodic Table. Designation - Ni from the Latin "niccolum". Located in the fourth period, VIIIB group. Refers to metals. The nuclear charge is 28.

Like cobalt, nickel occurs in nature primarily in the form of compounds with arsenic or sulfur; such, for example, are the minerals kupfernickel NiAs, arsenic-nickel luster NiAsS, etc. Nickel is more common than cobalt [about 0.01% (wt.) of the earth's crust].

Nickel metal has a silvery color with a yellowish tint (Fig. 1), is very hard, polishes well, and is attracted by a magnet. It is characterized by high corrosion resistance - stable in the atmosphere, in water, in alkalis and a number of acids. Actively dissolves in nitric acid. The chemical resistance of nickel is due to its tendency to passivation - to the formation of oxide films on the surface that have a strong protective effect.

Atomic and molecular mass of nickel

DEFINITION

Relative molecular mass of the substance (Mr) is a number showing how many times the mass of a given molecule is greater than 1/12 the mass of a carbon atom, and relative atomic mass of an element (A r)— how many times the average mass of atoms of a chemical element is greater than 1/12 the mass of a carbon atom.

Since in the free state nickel exists in the form of monatomic Ni molecules, the values ​​of its atomic and molecular masses coincide. They are equal to 58.6934.

Nickel isotopes

It is known that in nature nickel can be found in the form of five stable isotopes 58 Ni, 60 Ni, 61 Ni, 62 Ni and 64 Ni. Their mass numbers are 58, 60, 61, 62 and 64, respectively. The nucleus of an atom of the nickel isotope 58 Ni contains twenty-eight protons and thirty neutrons, and the remaining isotopes differ from it only in the number of neutrons.

There are artificial unstable isotopes of nickel with mass numbers from 48 to 78, as well as eight meta-stable states, among which the longest-lived isotope 59 Ni with a half-life of 76 thousand years.

Nickel ions

The electronic formula demonstrating the orbital distribution of nickel electrons is as follows:

1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 6 3d 8 4s 2 .

As a result of chemical interaction, nickel gives up its valence electrons, i.e. is their donor, and turns into a positively charged ion:

Ni 0 -2e → Ni 2+ ;

Ni 0 -3e → Ni 3+ .

Nickel molecule and atom

In the free state, nickel exists in the form of monoatomic Ni molecules. Here are some properties characterizing the nickel atom and molecule:

Nickel alloys

The main mass of nickel is used for the production of various alloys with iron, copper, zinc and other metals. Adding nickel to steel increases its toughness and resistance to corrosion.

Nickel-based alloys can be divided into heat-resistant (nimonic, inconel, hastell [over 60% nickel, 15-20% chromium and other metals]), magnetic (permalloy) and alloys with special properties (monel metal, nickel, constantan, invar, platinite).

Examples of problem solving

EXAMPLE 1

Exercise Write the reaction equations that can be used to carry out the following transformations:

NiCl 2 → Ni → NiSO 4 → Ni(NO 3) 2 → Ni(OH) 2 → NiCl 2.

Draw the equations for reactions occurring in solutions in ionic and abbreviated ionic forms.

Answer By placing a metal more active than nickel in a solution of nickel (II) chloride, you can obtain nickel in free form (substitution reaction):

NiCl 2 + Zn → Ni + ZnCl 2;

Ni 2+ + Zn 0 → Ni 0 + Zn 2+ .

Nickel dissolves in dilute sulfuric acid to form nickel(II) sulfate:

Ni + H 2 SO 4 (dilute) → NiSO 4 + H 2;

Ni 0 + 2H + → Ni 2+ + H 2 .

Nickel(II) nitrate can be obtained by an exchange reaction:

NiSO 4 + Ba(NO 3) 2 → Ni(NO 3) 2 + BaSO 4 ↓;

SO 4 2- + Ba 2+ → BaSO 4 ↓.

By treating nickel (II) nitrate with alkali, you can obtain nickel (II) hydroxide:

Ni(NO 3) 2 + 2NaOH → Ni(OH) 2 ↓+ 2NaNO 3 ;

Ni 2+ + 2OH - = Ni(OH) 2 ↓.

Nickel(II) chloride can be obtained from nickel(II) hydroxide by neutralization reaction with hydrochloric acid:

Ni(OH) 2 + 2HCl → NiCl 2 + 2H 2 O;

OH - + H + = H 2 O.

EXAMPLE 2

Exercise What mass of nickel(II) chloride can be obtained by heating 17.7 g of nickel and 12 liters of chlorine (n.s.)? What volume of 0.06 M solution can be prepared from this mass of salt?
Solution Let's write the reaction equation:

Ni + Cl 2 = NiCl 2.

Let's find the number of moles of nickel (molar mass - 59 g/mol) and chlorine that reacted using the data specified in the problem statement:

n (Ni) = m (Ni) / M (Ni);

n(Ni) = 17.7 / 59 = 0.3 mol.

n (Cl 2) = V (Cl 2) / V m;

n (Cl 2) = 12 / 22.4 = 0.54 mol.

According to the equation of the problem n (Ni): n (Cl 2) = 1:1. This means that chlorine is in excess and all further calculations should be made using nickel. Let's find the amount of substance and the mass of nickel (II) chloride formed (molar mass 130 g/mol):

n (Ni): n (NiCl 2) = 1:1;

n (Ni) = n (NiCl 2) = 0.3 mol.

m (NiCl 2) = n (NiCl 2) × M (NiCl 2);

m (NiCl 2) = 0.3 × 130 = 39 g.

Let's calculate the volume of a 0.06 M solution that can be obtained from 39 g of nickel (II) chloride:

V(NiCl 2) = n (NiCl 2)/ c (NiCl 2);

V (NiCl 2) = 0.3 / 0.06 = 0.5 l.

Answer The mass of nickel (II) chloride is 39 g, the volume of a 0.06 M solution is 0.5 l (500 ml).

Nickel sulfate is a crystalline substance of emerald green or turquoise color, soluble in water, eroded in air. This is a type of nickel salt.

Everyone working with nickel sulfate must be provided with special clothing, special shoes and other protective equipment. To protect the respiratory system, the ShB-1 “Lepestok” respirator should be used. To avoid contact with the skin of the hands, it is recommended to use protective paste IER-2 and lanolin-castor ointment. If nickel sulfate gets into your eyes, rinse them with copious amounts of water.
Production and laboratory premises in which work with 7-aqueous nickel sulfate is carried out must be equipped with supply and exhaust ventilation, and the equipment must be sealed.

Nikel- malleable and ductile metal. Nickel is ferromagnetic. In air it is stable. There is a protective film of NiO on the surface, which protects the metal from further oxidation.

WITH H2O and water vapor contained in the air, nickel doesn't respond either. Nickel practically does not interact with such acids as sulfuric, phosphoric, hydrofluoric and some others.

Interacts with HNO3:

3Ni + 8HNO 3 = 3Ni(NO 3) 2 + 2NO + 4H 2 O

WITH O2 reacts only at temperatures above 800° C.

Nickel oxide has basic properties. It exists in 2 modifications: low temperature (hexagonal lattice) and high temperature (cubic lattice).

It reacts with halogens and sulfur only at temperature to form NiHal 2 and NiS. When interacting with C, P, the following are formed: carbide Ni3C, phosphides - Ni 5 P 2, Ni 2 P, Ni 3 P.

With non-metals ( N 2) the reaction proceeds under optimal conditions.

There are salts that are soluble in water NiSO 4 , Ni(NO 3) 2 and many others that form crystalline hydrates NiSO 4 7H 2 O, Ni(NO 3) 2 6H 2 O.

Insoluble salts: phosphate Ni 3 (PO 4) 2 and silicate Ni 2 SiO 4.

If you add alkali to a solution of nickel(II) salt, a green precipitate of nickel hydroxide will form:

Ni(NO 3) 2 + 2NaOH = Ni(OH) 2 + 2NaNO 3.

Ni(OH)2 has weakly basic properties. When interacting with alkali:

2Ni(OH) 2 + 2NaOH + Br 2 = 2Ni(OH) 3 + 2NaBr.

N ickel in a dispersed state has great catalytic properties. activity in areas of hydrogenation, dehydrogenation, oxidation, isomerization, condensation. They use either skeletal nickel (Raney nickel), obtained by alloying with Al or Si with the last. leaching with alkali, or nickel on a carrier.

N ickel absorbs H 2 and forms solid solutions with it. NiH 2 hydrides (stable below 0°C) and the more stable NiH were obtained indirectly. Nitrogen is almost not absorbed by nickel up to 1400 °C, the pH value of N 2 in the metal is 0.07% at 450 °C. Compact nickel does not react with NH 3; dispersed nickel forms Ni 3 N nitride with it at 300-450 °C.

Molten nickel dissolves C to form carbide Ni 3 C, which decomposes during crystallization of the melt, releasing graphite; Ni 3 C in the form of a gray-black powder (decomposes at ~ 450 ° C) is obtained by carburizing nickel in a CO atmosphere at 250-400 ° C. Dispersed nickel with CO gives volatile nickel tetracarbonyl Ni(CO) 4 . When alloyed with Si, it forms silica; Ni 5 Si 2, Ni 2 Si and NiSi melt congruently, respectively. at 1282, 1318 and 992 °C, Ni 3 Si and NiSi 2 - incongruent, respectively. at 1165 and 1125°C, Ni 3 Si 2 decomposes without melting at 845°C. When fused with B it gives borides: Ni 3 B (mp 1175°C), Ni 2 B (1240°C), Ni 3 B 2 (1163°C), Ni 4 B 3 (1580 °C), NiB 12 (2320 °C), NiB (decomposes at 1600 °C). With Se vapor, nickel forms selenides: NiSe (mp 980 °C), Ni 3 Se 2 and NiSe 2 (decompose at 800 and 850 ° C, respectively), Ni 6 Se 5 and Ni 21 Se 20 (exist only in the solid state). When nickel is alloyed with Te, tellurides are obtained: NiTe and NiTe 2 (apparently a wide region of solid solutions is formed between them), etc.

In the Ni(III) and Ni(IV) complexes, the coordination the number of nickel is 6. Examples are violet K 3 and red K 2, formed by the action of F 2 on a mixture of NiCl 2 and KCl; strong oxidizing agents. Of other types, salts of hetero-polyacids are known, for example. (NH 4) 6 H 7. 5H 2 O, a large number of intra-complex compounds. Ni(II). See also Organo-nickel compounds.

Receipt. The ores are processed by pyro- and hydro-steel-lurgic. way. For silicate-oxidized ores (cannot be enriched), either reducer is used. smelting to produce ferronickel, which is then subjected to purging in a converter for the purpose of refining and enrichment, or smelting for matte with sulfur-containing additives (FeS 2 or CaSO 4). The resulting matte is blown in a converter to remove Fe, and then crushed and fired to reduce NiO from the resulting material. Metallic nickel is obtained by smelting. Nickel concentrates obtained from the beneficiation of sulfide ores are smelted into matte with the last. purging in the converter. From the copper-nickel matte, after its slow cooling by flotation, Ni 3 S 2 concentrate is isolated, which, similar to mattes from oxidized ores, is fired and reduced.

One of the ways of hydroprocessing of oxidized ores is the reduction of ore with generator gas or a mixture of H 2 and N 2 with subsequent. leaching with NH 3 and CO 2 solution with air blowing. The solution is purified from Co with ammonium sulfide. During the decomposition of the solution with the distillation of NH 3, nickel hydroxocarbonate is precipitated, which is either calcined and reduced from the resulting NiO. Nickel is obtained by smelting, or by re-dissolving. in the NH 3 solution and after distilling NH 3 from the pulp, nickel is obtained by reducing H 2. Dr. way - leaching of oxidized ore with sulfuric acid in an autoclave. From the resulting solution, after its purification and neutralization, nickel is precipitated with hydrogen sulfide under pressure and the resulting NiS concentrate is processed like matte.

Hydroprocessing of nickel sulfide materials (concentrates, mattes) is reduced to autoclaved oxidation. leaching with either NH 3 solutions (at low Co content) or H 2 SO 4. From ammonia solutions after separation of CuS, nickel is precipitated with hydrogen under pressure. For Ni separation,Extraction of Co and Cu from ammonia solutions is also used. methods using, first of all, chelating extractants.

Autoclave oxidation leaching to produce sulfate solutions is used both for enriched materials (mattes) with the transfer of nickel and other metals into the solution, and for poor pyrrhotium Fe 7 S 8 concentrates. In the latter case, the predominant is oxidized. pyrrhotite, which makes it possible to isolate elemental S and sulfide concentrate, which is further smelted into nickel matte.
