Bases and reducing agents are electron-gying agents and also called as
Correct answer: C. Nucleophile
- A. Electrolytic
- B. Electrophile
- C. Nucleophile
- D. None of the above
Explanation
Bases and reducing agents are electron-donating species, and they are also known as nucleophiles. Nucleophiles are characterized by their ability to donate electrons to electrophiles in chemical reactions. This is why the term 'nucleophile' fits the description given in the question. On the other hand, electrophiles are electron-accepting species, which is the opposite of what bases and reducing agents do. Electrolytic refers to processes involving electrolysis, which is not directly related to electron donation by bases and reducing agents. Therefore, the correct answer is Nucleophile.
