Question
Chapter 23, Problem 23.49QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Reactivity and the difference between the nucleophiles and electrophiles should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Electrophile (negative-charge loving):A molecule or ion that accepts a pair of electrons to make a new covalent bond is called an electrophile.
Electrophiles are neutral or positively charged species, having vacant orbitals and attracted electron towards itself.
Nucleophiles (positive-charge loving): A nucleophile is a more reactant species that affords a pair of electrons to the electrophile or electrophilic center and forms a new covalent bond.
The carbon or other hetero atom in a molecule which is bearing negative charge or lone pair of electron is called as nucleophiles.

4. Define the terms nucleophile and electrophile and state what makes a molecule either nucleophilic or electrophilic.
Nucleophile:
Electrophile:
What makes atom nucleophilic or electrophilic?
True or false: The weaker a single bond in a molecule, the greater the chance it will be the site of a reaction (compared to stronger single bonds in the molecule).
Describe the difference between a base and a nucleophile (20 words or less). Show and label an example of a base and a nucleophile
