Your answer:

Electronegativity of Chlorine is lesser than the electronegativity of Fluorine, this is because of higher charge/mass ratio and smaller in size

The electron affinity of the fluorine is less than chlorine because the size of fluorine is too small as size decreases from left to right inside period, whereas chlorine has a larger size to occupy electrons hence electron affinity of chlorine is more than fluorine.
