Periodic Table Trends
Ionization Energy (I.E.) generally increases across a period from left to right. However, the I.E. of aluminum does not follow this trend and is lower than that of magnesium. Using the valence shell electronic configuration of Mg and Al, explain why this exception occurs. Clearly justify your answer.
