Compare the ways in which ironmagnesium minerals and feldspars crystallize from magma?

In Bowen's reaction series, feldspar minerals go through a continuous change of composition, while iron-magnesium groups have an abrupt change of mineral types. When magma cools, the feldspars that form are calcium-rich. As cooling continues, the feldspars react with magma and the feldspar composition changes. The result is a zoned crystal with sodium-rich outer layers and calcium-rich core. For iron-magnesium minerals, when magma starts cooling, a mineral begins to crystallize. However, when the magma temperature drops, a whole new mineral begins to form. The previously formed minerals reacts with the magma and is converted into the new mineral.

Does Quartz weathers readily to aluminum-rich clay minerals?

Not quite sure what this question is asking, but quartz is not going to weather to an aluminum-rich anything, as quartz is composed of silica and oxygen. If a weathered something is rich in aluminum, it had to have come from a source of aluminum. So you can think of your possible aluminous sources. Feldspars, micas, etc.
