Sodium has a valency of +1 which means it has to lose one electron to get a noble configuration i.e Neon's configuration.
So after it loses one electron it becomes stable and hence more enthalpy is required to remove an electron from the stable atom hence the second ionisation enthalpy of sodium is greater than that of Magnesium.
