Question

define electrophiles and nuleophiles...​

Answer 1

Answer:

Electrophile and nucleophile are the chemical species that donate or accept electrons to form a new chemical bond. ... Any molecule, ion or atom that is in some manner deficient in electron can act as an electrophile.

Answer 2

Electrophiles are electron deficient species and can accept an electron pair from electron rich species.

• Examples include carbocations and carbonyl compounds.

A nucleophile is electron rich species and donates electron pairs to electron deficient species.

• Examples include carbanions, water , ammonia, cyanide ion etc.
