Cellspacing specifies the amount of space between one cell and other cells while cellpadding specifies the amount of space between the contents of a single cell and the cell border.

cellspacing adds more space outside the border of a cell | cell1-content | <-cellspacing-> | cell2-content | while padding is within a single cell | <-cellpadding-> cell-content <-cellpadding-> |

Check the dictionary the meaning of - - Padding and Spacing then you will understand. - and try coding HTML in Playground to check the difference. ^_^
