    Here nucleophilic addition reaction takes place if there is no leaving group on carbonyl carbon. if present then nucleophilic substitution. more the nucleophilicity of nucleophile more is the rate of reaction

    eduncle-logo-app

    aldehydes and ketones have no leaving group

    eduncle-logo-app

    I think attacking nucleophilic is strong basic because if it is weak base or ( more electronegative ) then it might remove the another group present on carbonyl group which is example of reaction is acyl chlorides ,carboxylic etc

    eduncle-logo-app

    yes so addition reaction takes place

    eduncle-logo-app

    sir plz check this also

    eduncle-logo-app

    no both are different things, leaving group ability decided by the Basicity while nucleophilic decided by many factors so we can say

    eduncle-logo-app

    you need to remember both order separately. if you need i can send you these order

    eduncle-logo-app

    kr do send sir

    weak bases are better leaving group. In order for a leaving group to leave, it must be able to accept electrons

    eduncle-logo-app

    sir but but addition of nucleophile in the carbonyl group is not done by leaving a group

    eduncle-logo-app

    there is formation of alcohol

    In the first stage, there is a nucleophilic attack by the cyanide ion on the slightly positive carbon atom. The negative ion formed then picks up a hydrogen ion from somewhere - for example, from a hydrogen cyanide molecule to form cyanohydrin.

    eduncle-logo-app

    when nucleophile attack there is negative charge on oxygen atom and if again attacking nucleophile leaves then product is same as reactant

    eduncle-logo-app

    sir
