To calculate the mass in excess of a substance in a chemical reaction, you would typically follow these steps:

1. **Identify the Reaction:** Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

2. **Determine the Moles of Reactants:** Calculate the number of moles of each reactant available.

3. **Use Stoichiometry:** Based on the coefficients from the balanced equation, determine the mole ratio of the reactants. This will help identify which reactant is in excess.

4. **Calculate the Limiting Reactant:** Determine which reactant will be consumed completely based on the mole ratios.

5. **Determine Excess Reactant:** Calculate how much of the excess reactant remains after the reaction.

6. **Convert Moles to Mass:** If required, convert the moles of excess reactant back to grams using its molar mass.

If you provide specific quantities or a particular reaction, I can demonstrate how to perform these calculations for that case.
