for 24grs of Mg = 1 mole  then 24*50 + 1200KJ/mole
in the forst ionisation 740kJ/mole energy used, therefore remaing energy is 1200 – 740 = 460KJ/mole, which is used for conversion of Mg+2
 
therefore 1540KJ is 1mole
460KJ is ?
\left \lfloor 460\div 14500 \right \rfloor \times 100  ans is 31.72% of Mg+2 and remaining 68.28 % is Mg+1
