2.  Uses of nickel  Nickel is used primarily for the alloys it forms  It is used for making stainless steel and many other corrosion resistant alloys  Finely divided nickel is used as a catalyst for hydrogenating vegetable oils.  Nickel is also used in ceramics, magnets, metals to and batteries  When added to glass, nickel gives a green color.  Copper-nickel alloy tubing is used in desalination plants  Propties of nickel  The melting point of nickel is 1453°C,  the boiling point of nickel is 2732°C  Nickel is a silvery white metal that takes a high polish  Nickel is hard, ductile, malleable, and somewhat ferromagnetic  It is a fair conductor of heat and electricity.  Some nickel compounds (nickel carbonyl, nickel sulfide) are considered to be highly toxic or carcinogenic

3. Fact’s About Nickel  Nickel’s word origin is German Nickel: Satan or Old Nick, also Old Nick's copper.  You can find nickel in batteries, ceramics, and magnets.  Found by Axel Fredrik Cronstedt  Found in Sweden the year was in1751  Nickel is a fairly good conductor of heat and electricity  Nickel dissolves slowly in dilute acids but, like iron, becomes passive when treated with nitric acid.  Finely divided nickel adsorbs hydrogen

4. A song about nickel [theme song to The Brady Bunch] Here’s a story of the element nickel It is mostly in batteries and magnets All of nickel dissolves very slowly in dilute acids The element nickel the element nickel That’s the way it became the element nickel
