Nickel2 sulfate is produced when elemental nickel metal is dissolved in sulfuric acid to make nickel2 sulfate. Hydrogen gas is also released in the process. what is the balanced equation for this chemical reaction?

I will be happy to critique your reasoning here.
bob is the balanced equation Ni+H2SO4=H2+NiSO4? I also think it could be 2Ni+H2SO4=H2+Ni2So4? I am confused...
sulfate is -2; therefore nickel(II) sulfate is NiSO4. The first equation is correct.
thank u so much!
