Kenny Odom · Answer 1

produces chemical stability; therefore decreases E

Explanation:

E is generally refers to the activation energy. Activation energy is a type of energy required for the starting of chemical reaction. Atoms are reactive when their outermost shell is incomplete and only be stable when the outermost shell filled with electrons. so for the reaction when the atom is stable activation energy is required but when the atom is stable, there is no need for activation energy.
