Hue, Value and Chroma

Hue is pure color. It is the property of light by which the color of an object is classified as red, blue, green, or yellow in the reference to the visible spectrum.

Value refers to lightness or darkness of a color. Chroma refers to the purity of a color, completely absent of any white, gray or black that would lessen its intensity or saturation.
