:CCl2 has 6 electrons with incomplete octet in its lewis structure. Hence, it is electron deficient.

In SO3, all the oxygen atoms pull electrons towards themselves making sulphur partially positive. Thus, it is an electrophile.

NO2 is an electrophile due to a positive charge on it.

NH3 and H2O are electron rich molecules due to the presence of lone pair of electrons.

NO2 is electron rich due to a negative charge on it.

C2H5is electron rich due to a negative charge on it.
