I believe you're talking about redox electroplating in a salt medium. If that's the case, then nickel is in fact the reducing agent. Reducing agent loses electrons, oxidizing agent gains.

What metals will not dissolve in an aqueous solution containing nickel ions?

POSSIBLE ANSWER: nickel (Ni) EXPLANATION: all metals dissolve in water more or less and there is an equilibrium point at which the dissolving rate and the condensing rate are the same. If the solution already has enough nickel ions (in other words it is a saturated solution), then the solid nickel you put in will not dissolve.


What are the materials you need to make nickel?

If you mean the chemical element nickel, all you need is some nickel-containing ore and the means to refine it; as an element, nickel itself cannot be altered except through nuclear fusion. If you're referring to a coin containing nickel, such as the U.S. five-cent piece, you need an alloy that is 75% copper (and only 25% nickel!) and a coin press. (In fact, the Canadian version has even less nickel than that: a plating that amounts to 2% of the weight of the coin, over a core that's mostly steel with a bit of copper.) Be aware, of course, that attempting to make and use your own money is considered counterfeiting, and is illegal in almost all parts of the world.
