Question

What is the correct name for the precipitate formed when mixing potassium carbonate and nickel(II) chloride?

Answer 1

NiCO3, nickel Carbonate

the Chemical reaction is as follows:

`K_2CO_3+NiCl_2\rightleftarrows NiCO_3+2\cdot KCl`

Where KCl (potassium chloride) is soluble in water and NiCO3 is insoluble in water and therefore it will precipitate
