There are <em>three</em> possibilities:
synthesis
redox (reduction/oxidation)
endothermic
Answer:
One other factor is the number of electrons removed. The potassium atom has one electron removed to for the corresponding ion, while calcium loses two electrons. The addition of electrons always results in an anion that is larger than the parent atom.

Answer:
6 Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2 Li₃N(s)
Explanation:
Solid lithium metal and diatomic nitrogen gas react spontaneously to form a solid product (lithium nitride). The chemical equation is:
Li(s) + N₂(g) → Li₃N(s)
Since the atomicities in the product are odd, the easiest way to balance the equation is by first multiplying it by 2.
Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2 Li₃N(s)
The final (balanced) equation is:
6 Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2 Li₃N(s)
