3Zn(NH2)2 → Zn3N2 + 4NH3

It can also be formed by heating zinc to 600 °F in a current of ammonia; the biproduct is hydrogen gas. [cite book

3Zn + 2NH3 → Zn3N2 + 3H2

Zinc nitride reacts violently with water to form ammonia and zinc oxide.

Zn3N2 + 3H2O → 3ZnO + 2NH3

It is soluble in hydrochloric acid [cite book
