Prepare a solution of a nickel salt such as sulfate, nitrate, chloride, etc. This can be done by dissolving pieces of nickel in a strong acid mixture. Once you have the nickel salt, neutralize the solution and add excess baking soda. Then filter out the fine light green nickel carbonate.
Nickel carbonate is insoluble in water whereas sodium carbonate is very soluble. After dissolving sodium carbonate in water, nickel carbonate can be filtered out.
Na2CO3 + H2SO4 ---> Na2SO4 + H2O +CO2
Zn + H2O + CO2 ---> ZnCO3 + H2
how to prepare 1000 ppm solution of nickel carbonate
it is the nickel that makes the nickel carbonate green
By observing other compounds. Nickel salts are often green; carbonates are ... well, pretty much any color, including colorless (white) for sodium carbonate (baking powder) or calcium carbonate (limestone, chalk).
One possible method is to reflux Ethanoic (Acetic) Acid with nickel hydroxide. Ni(OH)2 + 2CH3COOH => Ni(CH3COO)2 + 2H2O
it is inorganic

NiCO3 is the symbol for nickel carbonate. It has a molar mass of 118.702 g/mol and its IUPAC name is nickel(+2) cation carbonate.
it is inorganic
There is no compound by the name nickel(I) carbonate. Nickel(II) carbonate is however NiCO3
nickel carbonate is insoluble while sodium carbonate is, so therefore it would be easy to extract the sodium carbonate by adding water to the mixture
nickel (ii) carbonate
NiCO3
Nickel is a metal. It can be found in a compound as a silicate or carbonate but in its pure form, it is neither. It has many characteristics similar to iron. It is magnetic like iron.
