Hey friend,,,,,. mark as brainliest plz ✌✌...
The donation of electrons from an electron-rich portion of a molecule (this can be a lone pair, or even electrons already involved in bonds) to an electron-poor part of either the same, or a different molecule. The electron rich “donor” is called a nucleophile, and the electron poor “acceptor” is called an electrophile. This “attack” or “donation” usually results in the formation of a bond between the nucleophile and electrophile.

In organic and inorganic chemistry, nucleophilic substitution is a fundamental class of reactions in which an electron rich nucleophile selectively bonds with or attacks the positive or partially positive charge of an atom or a group of atoms to replace a leaving group; the positive or partially positive atom is referred to as an electrophile. The whole molecular entity of which the electrophile and the leaving group are part is usually called the substrate.[1][2]
