    Answer:Statement 1 and 3 are true

    Explanation:

    Ca + (g) + e - ➡Ca (g)

    Electron affinity of an atom or molecule is defined as the change in energy (in kJ/mole) of a neutral molecule (in gaseous state) when an electron is added to an atom to form a negative ion. Energy is released in the process thus the first electron affinities are negative.

    On the other hand ionisation energy is the quantity of an energy a gaseous atom in its ground must absorb to discharge an electron.

    H (g) ➡H + (g) + e-

    Considering both these definitions, statement 1 and 3 both falls true.
