context_page_description: Nickel(II) cyanide is an inorganic compound with a chemical formula Ni(CN)₂.
context_section_description: Nickel(II) cyanide dissolves in potassium cyanide solution to produce a yellowish solution:
  Ni(CN)₂ + 2 KCN → K₂[Ni(CN)₄]
  Nickel(II) cyanide will react with dimethylglyoxime and produce hydrogen cyanide:
  Ni(CN)₂ + 2 C₄H₈O₂N₂ → Ni(C₄H₇O₂N₂) + 2 HCN
