Electrophiles are electron loving and nucleophiles are nucleus loving species. Electrophiles are positively charged while nucleophiles are negatively charged.

Electron defficient species are electrophiles Ex:cations-H+,Na+,CH3+ etc all those are deficient of electrons so these are electrophiles. Electron rich species are nucleophiles.Ex:anions-F-,S-2,CO3-2 etc

The kernel is an atom without its valence electrons that are weakly bonded; no electron belongs to one nucleus, valence electrons can move one kernel to another. So it is known as kernel, not cation (have valency).
