 “Al” contains one unpaired electron remove the electron easy less amount of energy. “Na” contain unpaired electron remove electron less amount of energy required.

Al=Ne3s23p1, Mg=Ne3s2, Na=Ne3s1

Mg is a stable electronic configuration we remove the electron more amount of required compare to Al and Na.
