Solution

$\mathop {Ni}\limits_{(Impurity)} {\mkern 1mu}  + {\mkern 1mu} 4CO{\mkern 1mu} $ $\xrightarrow{{50{\,^o}{\kern 1pt} to{\kern 1pt} \,\,60{{\kern 1pt} ^o}C}}\mathop {\left[ {Ni{{\left( {CO} \right)}_4}} \right]}\limits_{Volatile{\kern 1pt} Compound}  \uparrow {\mkern 1mu} $  $\xrightarrow[{Themal{\kern 1pt} {\kern 1pt} decompotion}]{{200\,{\kern 1pt} to\,{\kern 1pt} 230{\kern 1pt} {{\kern 1pt} ^o}C}}\mathop {Ni}\limits_{pure}  + {\mkern 1mu} 4CO{\mkern 1mu}  \uparrow $
