2Mg + O2 = 2 MgO

48.64 g of Mg reacts with 32 g of oxygen

1 g of Mg will consume 32/48.64 g of Oxygen = 0.658 g
But we have only 0.56 g of oxygen.

Therefore  oxygen is the limiting reagent as it will get consumed completely and Mg is the excess reagent.

0.56g of oxygen need 0.56 x 48.658 /32 = 0.85 g of Mg

Excess reactant left is Mg of 0.15 g
