Answer:

Both the given terms refer to the force, however the basic difference lies in the different objects that's taking part.

While gravity is referred to as the force acting between the earth and a given object, gravitation is referred to as the force acting between two given objects.

Gravitation or gravitational force has direct relation to the mass of the two given objects and inverse relation to the distance between them( precisely the square of their distance).
