'''Nickel nitrate''' is the ] Ni(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> or any ] thereof. The ] form is not commonly encountered, thus "nickel nitrate" usually refers to nickel(II) nitrate hexahydrate. The formula for this species is written in two ways. Ni(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub><sup>.</sup>6H<sub>2</sub>O and, more descriptively (NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>. The latter formula indicates that the ](II) center is surrounded by six water molecules in this hydrated salt. The ] anions are not bonded to nickel. '''Nickel nitrate''' is the ] Ni(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> or any ] thereof. In the hexahydrate, the ] anions are not bonded to nickel. Other hydrates have also been reported: Ni(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub><sup>.</sup>9H<sub>2</sub>O, Ni(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub><sup>.</sup>4H<sub>2</sub>O, and Ni(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub><sup>.</sup>2H<sub>2</sub>O.<ref name=Ullmann>{{Ullmann|doi=10.1002/14356007.a17_235.pub2|title=Nickel Compounds|year=2005|last1=Lascelles|first1=Keith|last2=Morgan|first2=Lindsay G.|last3=Nicholls|first3=David|last4=Beyersmann|first4=Detmar|isbn=3527306730}}</ref>


It is prepared by the reaction of nickel oxide with nitric acid:
(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> is highly soluble in water, giving emerald green solutions. It is a useful precursor to other nickel(II) derivatives where the water ]s would be replaced.
: NiO + 2 HNO<sub>3</sub> + 5 H<sub>2</sub>O → Ni(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub><sup>.</sup>6H<sub>2</sub>O
The anhydrous nickel nitrate is typically not prepared by heating the hydrates. Rather it is generated by the reaction of hydrates with ] or of ] with ]:<ref name=Ullmann/>
: Ni(CO)<sub>4</sub> + 2 N<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> → Ni(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> + 2 NO + 4 CO


The hydrated nitrate is often used as a precursor to ] nickel catalysts.<ref name=Ullmann/>
==Safety==

Like other nitrates, nickel nitrate is ], so that caution should be exercised when it contacts with reducing materials such as ]s. It is also irritating to the eyes, skin and, upon inhalation of the dust, ]. It may cause skin ]. Nickel nitrate is a ], along with most other nickel compounds. The nickel ion is also toxic to aquatic organisms.
==Structure==
Nickel(II) compounds with oxygenated ligands often feature octahedral coordination geometry. Two ] of the tetrahydrate Ni(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub><sup>.</sup>4H<sub>2</sub>O have been crystallized.

==Reactions and uses==
Nickel(II) nitrate is primarily used in ] and ] of metallic nickel.

In heterogeneous catalysis, nickel(II) nitrate is used to impregnate ].
