stabilizing means making it less likely to react, less reactive


OR transforming it from a more reactive to a less reactive substance by lowering its energy level, by means of a usually exothermic chemical reaction that releases energy.


The higher the energy level of the substance, the less stable it is. Hence the energy content of the substance has to be decreased to increase its stability.
