Explanation:

Because their valence shells have the capability of gaining electrons, thus they are mostly electronegative in nature.

Answer:

Electronegativity differs from electron affinity because electron affinity is the actual energy released when an atom gains an electron. Nonmetals have more valence electrons and increase their stability by gaining electrons to become anions. The electronegativities of nonmetals are generally high.
