A) Increasing the electronegativity of the halogen increases the reactivity of the aryl halide.
B) Increasing the number of electron-withdrawing groups increases the reactivity of the aryl halide.
C) Electron-withdrawing groups stabilize the intermediate carbanion,and lower the energy of the transition state.
D) When a nitro group is located meta to the halogen,the negative charge of the intermediate carbanion can be delocalized onto the NO2 group,thus stabilizing it.
