Answer:

In physics and chemistry, ionization energy, ionisation energy is the minimum energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron of an isolated neutral gaseous atom or molecule.

The electron affinity of an atom or molecule is defined as the amount of energy released when an electron is attached to a neutral atom or molecule in the gaseous state to form a negative ion.

Electronegativity, symbolized as χ, is the tendency for an atom of a given chemical element to attract shared electrons (or electron density) when forming a chemical bond. ... The loosely defined term electropositivity is the opposite of electronegativity: it characterizes an element's tendency to donate valence electrons.

Ionisation potential is the energy required by the atom to remove electrons
Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons
Electron affinity is the energy released on gaining an electron
