Nickel is extracted from nickel oxide by reduction with carbon. Nickel is a metal which react with atmospheric oxygen which is very reactive in order to protect the inner surface of metal. Carbon extract oxygen which is attached to the nickel in the form of nickel oxide because carbon is more reactive so it made a chemical bonds with oxygen and nickel oxide is converted into a pure nickel.
