Decomposition
When heated to decomp it emits very toxic fumes of /sulfur oxides/.;Toxic gases and vapors (such as nickel carbonyl) may be released ... in the decomp of nickel cmpd. /Nickel & sol nickel cmpd/;848 °C. This produces toxic fumes of sulfur trioxide and nickel monoxide. See ICSC 0926. See ICSC 1202. Reacts with oxidants. This generates fire and explosion hazard. The solution in water is a weak acid.;

Physical Description
Anhydrous nickel sulfate is a yellow-green crystalline solid. Nickel sulfate can also be obtained as a hexahydrate (NiSO4.6H₂O (CAS: 10101-97-0) which is blue to emerald green, and as a heptahydrate (NiSO4.7H₂O) (CAS: 10101-98-1) , which is green. Samples can contain variable quantities of water, depending on their previous exposure to moisture or conditions. All forms are mildly toxic and are carcinogenic. All are denser than water. The primary hazard is the threat to the environment. Immediate steps should be taken to limit its spread to the environment.
