1what do you is a nucleophile ?
electrophile ?
google it up and let me know !!, btw what are your answers if any
which of the following behaves as (a) a nucleophile (b) an electrophile (c) both or (d) neither?
Cl minus , NO plus , H2O , CH3Oh , CH4 , CH2O , CH3CN , CH3CH=CH2 , AlCl3 , BeCl2 , Cr plus3 , H2 and SnCl4...
pls classify and let me know as soon as possible....

13Arrey yaar Aditya, tht is all u need 2 know-
Nucleophile- Wants Nucleus(+ve charge)
Electrophie- In search of electrons
Iske baad Qn mein kuch doubt hai toh ask...nahi toh u'll manage it on ur own. [1]
1Cl minus - nucleophile ,
NO plus - electrophile ,
H2O - nucleophile ,
CH3OH - nucleophile due to lp ,
CH4 - neither ,
CH2O - can't say i don't thnk it can't be used as nucleophile or electrophile ,
CH3CN - gives CN- which is nucleophile ,
CH3CH=CH2 - nucleophile as double bond can attack a gven compound ,
AlCl3 - electrophile - due lack of octet configuration,
BeCl2 - can't say - ,
Cr plus3 - i guess used incase of oxidation thugh seems to be electrophile due to +ve character , H2 - reduction with another reagent may be Nickel or someother and SnCl4 - can't say...
