Nickel sheet metal
Nickel is a strong, lustrous, silvery-white metal that is a staple of our daily lives and can be found in everything from the batteries that power our television remotes to the stainless steel that is used to make our kitchen sinks.
Properties:
- Atomic Symbol:Ni
- Atomic Number:28
- Element Category: Transition metal
- Density: 8.908g/cm3
- Melting Point:2651°F (1455 °C)
- Boiling Point:5275 °F (2913 °C)
