An excellent way to make highly pure nickel metal for use in specialized steel alloys is to decompose Ni(CO)4 by heating it in a vacuum to slightly above room temperature. Ni(CO)4(g) Ni(s) + 4 CO(g) The reaction is proposed to occur in four steps, the first of which is Ni(CO)4(g) Ni(CO)3(g) + CO(g) Kinetic studies of this first-order decomposition reaction have been carried out between 47.3 C and 66.0 C to give the results in the table.
