Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To classify the given species into electrophiles and nucleophiles, we need to understand the definitions of both: - **Electrophiles** are electron-deficient species that seek electrons to complete their octet. They typically have a positive charge or are neutral species with an incomplete octet. - **Nucleophiles** are electron-rich species that have excess electrons. They typically have a negative charge or possess lone pairs of electrons. Now, let's analyze each species one by one: 1. **AlCl₃ (Aluminum Chloride)**: ...
