Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The three of them increase from left to right across the periods of the periodic table, and at the same time, they decrease from up to down across the groups of the periodic table.

Ionization Energy is defined as the energy required to remove the atom of an electron.

Electron affinity is defined as the change in energy when electron is added to a negative ion.

Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract other atoms to itself.
