Which of the following is an electrophile ?

A

`H_(2)O`

B

`NH_(3)`

C

`AlCl_(3)`

D

`C_(2)H_(5)NH_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Electrophile always contains an electron of deficient atom. `AlCl_(3)` is an electrophile because the octlet of `Al` is not complete. It has only `6e^(-)s` in the valence shell.
