Answer:
Electropositivity can be defined as the tendency of an atom to donate electrons and form positively charged cations. This property is primarily exhibited by metallic elements, especially the alkali metals and the alkaline earth metals.
And
Electronegativity, symbolized as χ, is the tendency of an atom to attract shared electrons (or electron density) to itself. An atom's electronegativity is affected by both its atomic number and the distance at which its valence electrons reside from the charged nucleus.
