Nickel (II) iodide is a chemical compound of the elements nickel and iodine . The pure substance is a black, crystalline solid that melts at 797 ° C.
Extraction and presentation
Nickel (II) iodide can be obtained directly from the elements:
Another possibility of representation is the iodination of nickel (II) chloride with sodium iodide :
It is also possible to produce it by reacting nickel (II) hydroxide or nickel (II) carbonate with hydriodic acid .
properties
Nickel (II) iodide crystallizes in the trigonal crystal system with the space group R 3 m (space group no. 166) and the lattice parameters a = 392.9 pm and c = 1981.1 pm, in the unit cell there are three formula units . The structure thus corresponds to the CdCl 2 structure.
Nickel (II) iodide, like the other nickel halides except nickel (II) fluoride , dissolves in water to form the blue-green hexahydrate:
Its crystals dissolve quickly in air and turn brown with iodine deposition. The compound decomposes above 43 ° C. When heated on a water bath, it converts to the anhydrous form.
