How to Convert Liquid nitrogen to nitrogen Gas?

This may not be as spectacular as you migh imagine. If one litre of liquid nitrogen turned to gas, then it would simply be no longer the liquid form of nitrogen, but the gas form of it. This starts to happen immediately: its te smoke like stuff coming of the liquid nitrogen. Nitrogen in its gas form is a normal part of our atmosphere, we need it to breathe, so one litre of LIQUID nitrogen turning to GAS nitrogen will not do anything cool., You need to put something in the liquid nitrogen, and as nitrogen can only be liquid at a very low temperature, what ever you put in it, will freeze and if you hit it it will break.

Why does the water bottle containing liquid nitrogen explode?

Liquid Nitrogen in a water bottle will explode because of pressure build up. Liquid nitrogen vaporizes rather quickly and when it transitions from liquid to gas, the pressure increases if kept at the same volume. Think of boiling water in a closed container. It is similar to that but liquid nitrogen evaporates at much lower temperature, it will explode at room temperature. Let's say you submerged this water bottle below the boiling point of liquid nitrogen and put liquid nitrogen in the bottle, the bottle will not explode. It is a mechanical explosion (simple transfer of forces) not a chemical explosion like with hydrogen where hydrogen gas ignites.
