Nickel Nitrate-Ni(NO3)2

Copper Nitrate- Cu(NO3)

 

Ni(NO3)2+Cu=

Cu(NO3)+Ni=

 

help!

You might want to look up a reactivity series to determine which metal will displace the other (i.e. if copper is more reactive than nickel, it will cause the nickel to precipitate out, or vice versa).

Copper nitrate is not Cu(NO3), but Cu(NO3)2. Copper is a +2 ion.

 

As darkblade wrote, determine, which is the most electropositive metal.

This may prove a good starting place for you

Copper is lower on the list than nickel so the nickel will replace the copper right?

so it will turn out like this

 

Cu(NO3)2+Ni= Ni(NO3)2+Cu

 

but what happens to this one

 

Ni(NO3)2+Cu=

 

does it stay the same??????

Assuming you did the first question right - yes.
