From Wikipedia:
"This reaction occurs between 170 - 240°C, temperatures where ammonium nitrate is a moderately sensitive explosive and a very powerful oxidizer. Above 240 °C the exothermic reaction may accelerate to the point of detonation, so the mixture must be cooled to avoid such a disaster. Superheated steam is used to reach reaction temperature in some turnkey production plants." N2O, Nitrous Oxide is its common name as is Laughing Gas, its also known as Dinitrogen Oxide or Dinitrogen Monoxide. Ok, well, this is kind of right. Except if you want to use the reactants aswell. Because then, if you balance it, it will look like this:
NH4(NO3)2 → 2 H2O + 5N2O As on each side there are, 10 Nitrogen, 4 Hydrogen and 6 Oxygen.
This in a word equation would be: (Heat)
Ammonium Nitrate (solid) → Water Vapour (gas) + Nitrous Oxide (gas)
The chemical formula for Nitrous Oxide is N20
N2o Oddly, I can't get the typography right on this one. The O is a capital, not small letter. It will have to do.
n2+ 2o2 => 2no2
N=N=O

There is NO symbol for nitrous acid. However it has the formula ' HNO2'. Compare with nitric acid Nitrous Acid = HNO2 Nitric Acid = HNO3 NB Note the number of oxygen present.

Nitrous acid is HNO2
HNO2 is the correct formula for Nitrous acid.
The acid with the chemical formula HNO2 is nitrous acid. HNO3 is nitric acid.
