Electronegativity is the attraction that the electrons has to the nucleus due to the protons. Opposites attract each other. Ionization energy is the energy needed to remove the valence electrons. As the electronegativity increases so does the ionization energy.

Answer:

valence electrons are the electrons at the outermost shell. electronegative is the oxidation number that is negative.
