IPhone – How to stop the sync attempts for an app

applicationsiphoneitunesitunes-store

Whenever I sync my iPhone with iTunes, the phone tells me:

iTunes Sync

1 item could not be synced. See iTunes for more information.

And iTunes tells me:

The app "The Elements" was not installed on the iPhone "[…]" because not enough free space was available.

This makes sense, because the app "The Elements" is very large. But I don't want it on my iPhone anyway.

How can I stop the attempted sync of this specific app?
