Interpretation:
For the given set of
Concept introduction:
Nucleophile: Nucleophiles are electron rich compounds which donates electrons to electrophilic compounds which results in bond formation.
Nucleophilic nature depends on the negative charge present in the molecule, the solvent in which it present and the electronegativity of the atom.
Electrophile: Electrophiles are electron deficient compounds which accepts electrons from nucleophiles that results in bond formation.
Chemical reaction involves bond making and breaking of two or more reactants in order to attain products from the reactants.
(b)
Interpretation:
For the given set of chemical reactions the electrophile and the nucleophile should be determined and the curved arrows that denote the bond making and breaking should be indicated.
