Answer:
The key difference between nucleophilic and electrophilic addition is that, in nucleophilic addition reactions, an electron-rich component combines with a molecule whereas, in electrophilic addition reactions, either an electron-deficient species or a neutral compound with empty orbitals combines with a molecule.

Answer:
It's really in the terms "substitution" and "addition" that we find a meaningful difference. Nucleophilic substitution is when a nucleophile attacks an electrophilic site (i.e. a particularly electropositive site) and displaces a substituent in order to form a new molecule.
