Answer 2

Answer:

The reaction where the electrophile is not stabilised by resonance is Electrophilic Substitution.

Explanation:

Electrophiles:

Electrophiles are chemical species that receive electron pairs and form bonds with nucleophiles. Electrophiles are usually Lewis acids as they accept electrons. Most electrophiles have  a positive charge, partially positively charged atoms, or atoms without electron octets.

Electrophilic Substitution reactions:

An electrophilic substitution is a chemical reaction in which a functional group that is attached to a compound is replaced with an electrophile. The substituted functional group is usually a hydrogen atom. The electrophilic substitution reaction usually proceeds by a three-step mechanism including the following steps.

• Generation of electrophilic reagents
• Carbocation formation (this is an intermediate)
• Removal of protons from intermediates
