Which of the following assertions most accurately defines alkynes' overall reactivity? Alkynes undergo electrophilic addition reaction just like alkenes. An alkyne reacts as an electrophile and is therefore electron rich. An alkyne reacts as a nucleophile and is therefore electron poor. An alkyne reacts as an electrophile and is therefore electron poor.
