Question

Select nucleophiles from the following:
BF3, NH3, OH-, R-X, C2H5OH​

Answer 1

Answer:NH3 is nucleophiles

Answer 2

As per question ,we have to choose the nucleophiles from the following: BF3,NH3,OH- ,R-X, C2H5OH

•so here the nucleophiles are NH3,OH-, C2H5OH

•Because nucleophiles mean a negative ion or anion or a neutral molecule which has more than one unsheared electron or at least one unsheared electron pair which are used to form a chemical bond.

And the C2H5OH,OH-,NH3 are following this theory , that's why they are nucleophiles.
