electron gain enthalpy- it is the energy change that occurs when electron is added to the outermost shell of a neutral gaseous atom...... while..... electronegativity is the tendency of the atom to attract electron

Explanation:
Electron gain enthalpy is the tendency of an isolated gaseous atom to accept an extra electron to form a gaseous anion while electronegativity is the tendency of an atom of an element to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself in a covalent bond. Unlike electron gain enthalpy, electronegativity is not a measurable quantity.
