Nickel is the 28th chemical in the periodic table and the chemical symbol of copper (II) nitrate is Cu (NO₃) ₂. The chemical reaction that occurs between these compounds is a single-replacement reaction.

From the activity series of metals, nickel is able to replace copper in the compound and this is expressed in the balanced equation,

Ni (s) + Cu (NO₃) ₂ (aq) - - > Cu (s) + Ni (NO₃) ₂ (aq)

The phases are also written in the equation.
