Why the 1^st position of naphthalene is more reactive than 2^nd position? Explain giving mechanism.

The difference in reactivity between the 1st and 2nd positions of naphthalene can be attributed to the concept of regioselectivity, and this phenomenon is particularly relevant in the context of organometallic chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, poly nuclear hydrocarbons, and spectroscopy. 

In naphthalene, the 1st position refers to the carbon atom directly attached _____ ________ ___ ____ __________.
