"Product"=Ni(NO_3)_2+Cu

Explanation:

Ni is placed below in the Standard reduction potential series as shown in the table below.This means in aqueous medium Ni(s) atom reduces blue colored Cu^{2+)(aq) to metallic reddish Cu and it self oxidized to light green Ni^(2+) and colorless NO_3^-ions remain as spectators i n solution.

Ni(s)+Cu(NO_3)_2=Ni(NO_3)_2+Cu
