Explanation:

We have the following reaction

$N_2+3H_2 \longrightarrow 2NH_3$

A real yield of 3.85 g of NH_3 is obtained

To calculate the reaction yield in percentage we must calculate the mass that theoretically we must obtain

The reaction occurs in excess of hydrogen and 24.0g of N this means that when the nitrogen is finished the reaction will end

Nitrogen is our limit reagent

Molar mass of nitrogen 14 g/mol

This means that in 1 mol of nitrogen there is 14 g.

To calculate the moles of nitrogen in 24 g N we apply a simple rule of three

$14 g N \longrightarrow 1 mol N\\24.0g N \longrightarrow x \\x=\frac{(24)(1)}{(14)} \\x= 1,71 mol N$

According to stoichiometric coefficients 1 mol of N produces 2 moles of NH_3

$N_2+3H_2 \longrightarrow 2NH_3$

1.71 mol N how many moles of NH_3 will produce

$1 mol N\longrightarrow2 mol NH_3\\1.71 mol N \longrightarrow x \\x\frac{(1.71)(2)}{1} \\x= 3.42 mol NH_3$

Molar mass of NH_3 17 g / mol

This means that in 1 mol of NH_3 there are 17 g.

$1 mol NH_3 \longrightarrow 17 g NH_3\\3.42 mol NH_3 \longrightarrow x\\x = \frac{(3.42)(17)}{1} \\x= 58.14 g NH_3$

58.14g NH_3 corresponds to the theoretical yield of the reaction

To calculate the percentage yield of the reaction we use the following formula

$\%= \frac{actual yield}{theoretical yield} .100\%\\\%=\frac{3.85}{58.14}. 100\%\\\%= 6.62\%$

The percent yield for this reaction is 6.62%
