Best Answer

Heating ammonium nitrate to 250 degrees C produces N2O by the process NH4NO3 → N2O + 2H2O.

The compound nitrous oxide contains 2 atoms of nitrogen and 1 of oxygen. It can be produced by bacterial action on fertilizers. It is produced industrially by the decomposition of ammonium nitrate (itself produced by adding nitric acid and ammonia HNO3 + NH3 → NH4NO3).

Decomposition is the breaking down of a substance. A general formula for this would be;

AB -> A + B

The decomposition formula for N2O4 would be;

N2O4 -> N2 + 2O2
