Answer:

Yes, the formed product is calcium nitride,
Ca_3N_2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the answer is yes, since nitrogen in gaseous state is able to react with calcium in solid state to form calcium nitride as shown below:


N_2+Ca\rightarrow Ca_3N_2

This is possible since calcium losses two electrons and nitrogen gains three electrons to remain positively and negatively charged respectively, forming the aforementioned ionic compound.

Best regards.
