1.	Cyanide ion acts as an ambident nucleophille. From which end it acts as a strong nucleophile in aqueous medium? Give reason for your answer.A. It act as a stronger nucleophile from carbon end.B. It acts as a stronger nucleophile from nitrogen end.C. It depends on the nature of the alkyl halide.D. It has same strength from both the ends.
Answer» Correct Answer - A It acts as a stronger nucleophile from the carbon end because it will lead to the formation of C-C bond which is more stable than C- N bond.
