I'm pretty sure it's electron affinity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

electronegativity is a measure of an atom's electron attraction. It mainly relates to covalent bonds, where electrons are shared. However, ionic bonds are between atoms with large differences in electronegativity. The answer is electronegativity. bluebradon, electron affinity refers to the energy released by an atom when an electron is added to a neutral atom creating a negative ion.
