Nickel single crystal 28Ni58.71
Discovered in 1801 by C. Hatchett at London, England.
[Greek: niobe = daughter of Tantalus of Greek mythology] French: niobiumGerman: niobium
Italian: niobio
Spanish: niobio
Nickel is a silvery-white, lustrous, malleable and ductile metal. it resists corrosion, but is soluble in acids (except HNO3), yet unaffected by alkali's. It is used in alloys, especially stainless steel, in coins, metal plating, and catalysts.
