Answer:

magnesium has greater nuclear charge and the electrons are attracted towards the nucleus, thus it requires more energy to remove electrons. ... 3s2 3p1,so there is one electron available in 3p orbit and it can be easily removed,so Ionization energy of Magnesium is more than that of Aluminium.
