32. In general, ionization energy increases from left to right across a given

period. Aluminum, however, has lower ionization energy than magnesium

Explain.

Respuesta :

Aluminum's outer electron in 3p-orbital is slightly further from the nucleus and protected by 3s-orbital. This causes it to need less energy. Magnesium's outer electron is closer and not protected by an outer orbital.
Hope This Helps and Ged Bless!
