2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO
2 mol 1 mol 2 mol
1 mol 1/2 mol 1 mol

3.2g of oxygen = 3.2/32 = 0.1 mol
3.2g of Mg = 3.2/24 = 0.133 mol

For 0.13 mol Mg oxygen should be 0.0665 mol, but we have 0.1 mol of oxygen. Therefore oxygen is excess. It is excess by 0.1 - 0.0665 = 0.0335 mol

Mass of 0.035 mol of oxygen = 0.0335*32 = 1.072g

Oxygen is excess by 1.072g
