Question

what do you mean by activating and deactivating groups in chemistry?​

Answer 1

Answer:

If a group increases the stability thereby increases overall reactivity of the electrophilic substitution reaction, then it can be termed as activating group. Similarly if a group reduces the stability of intermediate thereby reduces the reactivity, then it can be termed as deactivating group

Explanation:

it is correct answer for your Q hope is helpful and please give me thanks

Answer 2

If a group increases the stability thereby increases overall reactivity of the electrophilic substitution reaction, then it can be termed as activating group. Similarly if a group reduces the stability of intermediate thereby reduces the reactivity, then it can be termed as deactivating group.
