...can someone please explain this?
So far I understand that it involves ELECTROPHILES (specimens that can take electron pairs)and NUCLEOPHILES (specimens that are willing to give up electron pairs) and this joins together. I also know that it has something to do with the pi bond (formaerly known as the carbon double bond) but I'm not entirely sure what.
